[linux-audio-user] linux kernel 2.6.0

[aguerrier]

Hi  
What sort of improvements are we(linux-audio-users) to expect upon 
upgrading the kernel of our DAW to 2.6.0?  I am asking the question to 
get some knowledge and start a nice discussion.  I have read 'The 
Wonderful World of Linux 2.6' on http://www.kniggit.net/wwol26.html  
There is a nice paragraph on 'audio and multimedia'; it mentions ALSA's 
inclusion in the kernel and improvements in USB Audio and MIDI devices 
and some upgrade in Video4Linux subsystem, as well.
What does it all mean to our day-to-day productivity?  Should I now get 
the M-Audio Firewire 410, because its functionality might/probably have 
improved?
Any thoughts?
