Hi all;

	The status of our sound stuff is certainly problematic. I hope to
be digging into the midi stuff and adding support for the turtle beach
maui card in the coming months. I hesitate to make this statement because
i am just finishing school and i am uncertain as to what the future might
bring. But i know that i have been drawn to that portion of the kernel
several times recently, and i suspect i will be playing with this when i
am supposed to be doing something else! :-)

does anybody have some examples of userland code that fiddles with
hardware? i dont really want to do my early work in the kernel! the
turnaround is too long, and the consequences of late night coding are too
dire to deal with when it is a kernel routine! ( u guys know what i am
talking about..that hackfest that was certainly gonna end at 9:00pm...9:15
for sure...that has dragged on until 2:00 am ...and u just noticed that u
have done an "rm -r *" on /usr/local instead of /usr/local/foo .. )
