m (→‎Audio Tasks: added proposed new chapter-ordering)
(commented "old" Audio Tasks ordering, and instated new ordering; removed Webcasting, because it's not likely to make it in - still a possibility)
Line 1: Line 1:
(1.) Topics marked as "optional" will be completed as time permits, during project weeks 9, 10, and 11.  See the proposed schedule for details.
(2.) Where possible, I will avoid replication of material by referring to existing Fedora Project documentation.

I think that I want to change the ordering of these chapters.  The problem now is where to put Audacity; it's not really a DAW, but the other three share most concepts.  Here is the new one, followed by the old one.
