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 order, some were skipped, and some needed to be re-recorded. If you need a list 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 recorded 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 contact 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, preferably 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, Audacity, available for free here: http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ You must possess, on the same computer, the LAME MP3 encoder. You can download it at this site: http://lame.sourceforge.net/, which provides 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 directly 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 how to attach a file to an email. You must be able to follow written instructions, which you can find here: http://tinyurl.com/gismu-instructions Finally, you must be willing to sacrifice some of your free time to do the actual job. These last two are in my opinion no-brainers. If you meet these criteria, please go to http://tinyurl.com/gacsp-signup, claim one or more chunks and type your name into the sign up field so everyone else knows you've claimed that chunk, and follow the download link to download your chunk in mp3 format. There are 11 chunks total. Each chunk is ~6 minutes of audio, which based on my rather basic math should be ~100 gismu in each chunk. When you have completed your chunk, place all the files into an archive and email them to me. Then, if you like, grab another chunk. If you don't like, go do something else. I don't know how good of an incentive this is, but you should know that this audio, once it's been pulled apart into a usable format (the goal of this project), it will be the audio for the various learning programs currently in existence and probably for future ones as well. This means the current lessons on Anki and Memrise specifically, and more generally any other places where someone feels inclined to upload audio for how to pronounce the gismu. -- mu'o mi'e .aionys. .i.e'ucai ko cmima lo pilno be denpa bu .i doi.luk. mi patfu do zo'o (Come to the Dot Side!
