Longer form, e.g. for ISMIR 3-hour hands-on tutorial¶

If we want to do hand-on data management, do we need a local server ? Do we use the C4DM test repository ? Would any users actually have any data to work with anyway ?

Things we must make¶

• Leaflets, handouts etc
  • What is version control? and why use it?
  • Unit testing and audio software
  • Data management and policy
  • Software licences and copyright
