hi
let me take advantage of this thread

since sfront was much easiler to install .bin-ly
on my slow promt-mode-oriented-slackware-machine
am about to stick to saol instead of csound
when @ linux

mr lazzlo is kind enough to answer to my newbie
oriented quentions
but
when i try to find things -related to saol- floating
on the net
there are very few hits and
most of them are out of date

is there any good community
(ml wound be best if possible)
that i can join
which is active at this moment?
