I saw this on Gitter today:

He’s talking about: [https://github.com/numenta/nupic/tree/master/examples/audiostream](https://github.com/numenta/nupic/tree/master/examples/audiostream)

This is a community-contributed example codebase, but because it is inside the NuPIC repository, it implies that maintainers of the repo will keep it running and up-to-date, yet this is not the case. I don’t think we have tried to run this code in years. It might not even work anymore.

Anyway, since we aren’t maintaining this code, I think we should move it out of NuPIC. I propose we move this code into [https://github.com/htm-community/nupic-example-code](https://github.com/htm-community/nupic-example-code), where I think more community examples of NuPIC usage should go.

This is not an [official vote](https://github.com/numenta/nupic/wiki/Contributor-Model#62-voting), but I’m throwing in this poll just to see what the community thinks.

_Poll ([view on site](https://discourse.numenta.org/t/proposal-move-audiostream-example-out-of-nupic-codebase/1251/1))_

If anyone has a dissenting opinion strong enough to defend, please do!
