Each job will be essentially the same, with the = only difference between them being the actual words in your chunk

Wi= th that in mind, these are the skills and software that are required to do = this job:

You must be able to recognize a gismu from it's pronunciation. This= means that you must be able to identify and type the word solely from the = audio. If you know Lojban's pronunciation, this is not difficult. This = is required because while Lindar recorded the audio /mostly/ in frequency o= rder, some were skipped, and some needed to be re-recorded. If you need a l= ist of the gismu in frequency order, you can find it here: http://www.lojban.org/= tiki/Word+frequency+lists%3A+gismu

It is possible that there are more of both unrecorded and badly recorde= d words (badly recorded being words that are unidentifiable for any reason)= . If you encounter either in the course of your job, you must be able to co= ntact Lindar, likely preferably via email, to inform him of these words so = that he can submit new recordings. In the case of a word or three, preferab= ly to yourself. In the case of a chunk's worth of words, preferably to = me so I can add the recording to the chunk list for claimage.

You must possess, on the computer you will be using to work on, Audacit= y, available for free here: ht= tp://audacity.sourceforge.net/

You must possess, on the same com= puter, the LAME MP3 encoder. You can download it at this site: http://lame.sourceforge.net/, which provid= es the source code, or you can go here: http://lame.sourceforge.net/links.php#Binaries = to download a binary, or for Windows users you can download the .dll direct= ly from the instructions page that I will make if I get any volunteers.

You must know how to collect a group of files into an archive. It does = not matter if you use .zip, .rar, .7z, .tar, .tar.gz, .tar.bz, or any other format not mentioned.

You must know h= ow to attach a file to an email.

You must be able to follow written instructions.

Finally, you mu= st be willing to sacrifice some of your free time to do the actual job. The= se last two are in my opinion no-brainers.

That's not exactly how crowd sourcing works..

- Where's the page with the exact instructions for the task?
=A0 (not just some memrise page and a long mail thread)

- Where's a list of jobs to do? I mean "here's the file, every= one, chop it" is _one_
=A0 job, not a bunch of them. Just split the word lists (also the audio if = possible)
=A0 into manageable chunks, number them and and add a wiki page,
=A0 where people can mark finished items.

- What to do with the final audio file of each job?
