I think, talk about CSound, SC and Pd mostly happens on the respective
mailing lists. pd-list and pd-dev for example have more subscribers
than LAU/LAD and a quite a big amount of traffic. There just is no
need to talk about Pd-specific topics on LAU/LAD. I guess it's similar
with SC and Csound. The fact, that there's not that much talk about
the big three on LAD/LAU in no way means they aren't used on Linux.
