Hi,
As a starter, I'd also like to be in :-)
I can play... loads of stuff. Derbuka, digeridoo, Cajon, guitar,

piano, recorder (heh, well... I've been to school :-)

MIDI could be used for collaborative composition, With a set of fixed

downloadable instrument samples to work with. Then could the real

recording/mastering part come.

Another possibility I've been thinking about is a fixed database of

wave files assembled in an ardour session. The ardour session could be

edited in a collaborative fashion using SVN, while the audio would be

out of this scope (audio files are just too big for

SVN/GIT/CVS/WhatEver to handle)
