Maybe, but its not. I'm not even sure it should be. There a lot of people
who just dont have time to read LAD, and if there were even more
traffic then some existing subscribers would have to leave.

I'm not knocking LAD, but it can't (and shouldn't) speak for all linux
audio developers (and neither can or should linuxaudio.org). LAD has its
own agenda that not all linux audio developers will agree with.
