Hermann, it is both. Overview and opinion are not antipodes :)<br>

Hey everyone!<br>
<br>
A while back I wrote an article, an overview of Linux Audio.<br>
Posting it here, just in case people will find it of interest.<br>
Do read the disclaimer, *this article is but my personal<br>
opinion ;)<br>

<br>
<br>
Linux Audio: An overview<br>

<br>
<br>
So what is it, a overview, or, a opinion?<br>
Smells like political polemic to me :-(<br>
<br>
Note, I haven't read your article, it's just your announcement<br>
which makes me stumbled.<br>
