Re: Global-isation?

 

I think it would be better to use Jokosher rather than Audacity, for the
simple reason that Jokosher is a native GNOME app and looks WAY better. Of
course, Audacity is more stable, has more features, and is listed in the
Featured Software section of the USC. I know that. But for an advertisement
we need a good first impression, and that will come more easily with
something good-looking.
