This module holds sound files for a default GNOME set. Stick them in the 'sounds' directory here, or a subdirectory thereof - the whole tree will be copied over into $(gnome_prefix)/share/sounds. Please remember to add these sound files with the '-kb' option (to tell CVS to treat them as binary files rather than text files). The criteria for sound inclusion: . No licensing issues . Appropriate length . Shorter than 1 second for any sound that denotes a specific event . Shorter than 5 seconds for a background sound (basically, startup/shutdown) . Appropriate sound . Volume . Normalized between samples . . Spectral range . No extremes . Good taste . KISS . General common sense (hah!) Thanks, -- Elliot Lee
