...well this was just the template text that github offered for the first discussion and i left it as is.

sooo - apparently github realized that the issue tracker tends to get "abused" for discussions a lot and has introduced this new feature to keep the discussions separated from the issues. very nice. it's also possible to convert issues to discussions, which i'll do soon where this is appropriate...

ah - there seem to be still some problems with that:
community/community#2924
...ok, so i'll wait until it's ready.

here's some general info about the new feature:

ah - hi denis! nice to see you! looking forward to your daw project!

Hi Robin! I have it here on Github already, just not made it public yet. So far looks a lot better here, comparing to Beanstalk.

Btw, did you receive my latest ideas via email, regarding waveshaping, stretching, pitching, etc.?

[RobinSchmidt]

great to hear. yes - github seems to be the most major code hosting platform which just about everyone seems to use. it was actually acquired by microsoft some time ago which made me a bit wary about its future. but it seems like microsoft really wants to support open source software, which is a very welcome step for a giant commercial software vendor

yes, i still have to dig out the code for the time-stretch stuff. maybe we can continue the discussions now here on github with this new feature in place

[denisreview]

Ok, sure, there's plenty of time anyway, until the GUI is fully ready to integrate any internal DSP stuff. Just so you know, I'm planning to make the App first as a sampler with waveshaping, stretching, repitching & related stuff as a basic feature set.

the feature for converting issues to discussions seems to work now. i'm now converting a bunch of issues into discussions. well done, github! "Discussions" is a very useful feature that was formerly missing.
