(that would also free us from the old spaghetti > code)... Well, let's not forget the [far, far greater] importance of having a Linux compatible audio API. Their API may have its warts, but as far as audio applications written to the Linux sound driver spec, they have us beat by a factor of 10 or so. Aside for some scattered mbone tools, there aren't any applications _written_ to use this common BSD soundAPI if we had one. Frankly, I'd rather have the apps. :) Jordan
