Hey Guys, Sorry about the problems with MIDI. At the time, as I saw it, the current midi didn't work and had no chance of working, and I supportred removing it regardless of the MIDI drivers I have written. I've been off-line for a while and haven't been able to work on it (I don't think it's cool to work on FreeBSD at the office). In the meantime, Seigo has imported the new midi framework into P4 (for those you who ignored the patches I've been posting for about a year). For the record, I do ocassionally hear positive reports about the midi driver... Which is a nice change from the silence that I normally hear. Anyway, expect some updates "Real Soon Now" (intenet should be back on tommorow, but I've had bad luck with the monopoly). --Mat -- The state has no business in the bedrooms of the nation. - Pierre Elliott Trudeau
