Oh wow! Thats great news! I was greatly impressed when my workmate
showed me GP under windows a while back - I'm pretty certain there is
no comparable FOSS guitar teaching aid and its unlikely there will be
for some time, if ever. Keyboard players have pianobooster but GP6
will be miles ahead of any existing Linux alternative.

RMS would be ashamed of me for saying so but I for one welcome more
commercial (music) software being released for Linux, especially apps
that have no real FOSS alternative. More quality native apps for Linux
can only lead to more Linux converts and less reasons for wine,
dual-booting and Windows VMs.
