audio recordings of chats i had with people who attended the kde four core meeting are now up on radio.kde.org. they aren't slick with cutesy music intros and what not and there are the occasional audio glitches and i've only tested this with amarok and akregator. so apologies in advance for the probably mistakes from me, the podcast newbie.
i am looking for feedback such as "the rss feeds don't work for me" or "you know what would be a cool topic?" or "oh my god. please stop. now." ;) i hope to continue doing more of these if the response is positive.
konqcast (ogg format)
konqcast for those who need it in mp3
update: i've added a small crappy bit of html to radio.kde.org so that if your web browser supports automatically finding rss feeds and adding them to your aggregator you can go that route. a "real" website would be cool for this, but beyond my time budget at the moment.
update 2: if you're getting 404's, that's because the dns hasn't updated properly yet. it changed last night to point to the new location. we also now have an osusl mirror (huzzah!) and as soon as that is sync'd up (tomorrow) i'll be adding those links as well.
enjoy (i hope =)

both rss links are getting 404 errors
Thanks for posting the podcasts Aaron - much appreciated :)
About the radio-homepage: looks like KDE really needs some kind of CMS or at least a default web-page template or something comparable. It should be comparable easy to set up a cool web site for the radio streams when you have some design to start with...
I'm listening to xmlgui -- did you guys record this outdoors? I'm hearing birds!
@liquidat: tell me about it! hopefully before kde 4.0 is released we'll have our act together. as we now have dozens (hundreds?) of websites in the kde universe, a scary amount of content and years of people entrenched in the current status quo this is not as simple as it sounds.
@miguel: "did you guys record this outdoors? I'm hearing birds!"
yes, several of these were recorded out on the deck where there was a bit more sunshine. this way we didn't distract others who were working on their computers.
i was happily surprised when i first listened to them myself and heard birds chirping. nice ambiance.
I think the rss has another problem.
links are:
radio.kde.org/showXX.mp3
instead of:
radio.kde.org/pub/konqcast/show.mp3
@anonymous: the / vs /pub/konqcast issue is due to DNS roll-over issues. your dns is probably resolving radio.kde.org to ftp.osuosl.org and causing this issue. i updated the rss last night to hopefully help deal with this.
Thanks for taking the time to do this. Really interesting to hear.
Wow. They were all fantastic. All the people interviewed were impressive, but I really liked Celeste's. She really sounds as if she knows what she's aiming for.
