=== New instrument ===
=== Sugar Labs infrastructure ===


Sampled harmonium from a recording; will be raising a PR soon for testing.
With our latest ldap mishaps, we've been looking at moving to using local user accounts for authentication.


Q: Do we need to make a random number generator?
We seem to have a really hard time standing up servers/services
A: No. That's a student project.


== Diwangshu ==
=== Proposed event schedule for May-July ===


=== Music Keyboard ===
Do we agree to make gen-AI a central topic for discussion? **YES**


When you record with metronome, it is recording the final rest note of previous recording as well as rest for current recording. PR made.
Do we want to bring in any special guests? **YES** -- whom?


During countdown, no rests should be recorded.
