A weekend

Musicians and audio professionals using Linux struggle to find compatible hardware and configuration help.

Create a community-driven database of audio interfaces with Linux compatibility ratings and setup guides.

Musicians and recording studios might pay for premium support or verified configurations.

MVP could be a simple wiki-style site with user-submitted reports.
