It has nothing to do with arrangements like this, and everything to 
do with what the market is like.  The linux DSP market right now is 
non-existent - it'd help to have a multitrack DAW running, at least, 
first.

That said, though, things are moving fast in the Linux Audio world. 
The first company to have a working DSP platform akin to other OS'es 
will stand to gain a lot of ground ...
