"simply" ? I am amazed, do people understand that the system is evolving so if a module works _now_ it does not mean it will work forever without mainteinance ? I really don't care if voxware stays or goes. At some point (maybe never...) it will happen to break because of changes in related parts of the system and then we will not have to decide. On the other hand people is not forced to upgrade, so even when a driver is removed they can happily stay with the last version that supported their favourite hardware. cheers luigi To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
