Project mailing lists, for audio applications and distros.

If there's a good reason to subscribe to 1000 bugtrackers I do it, but
really, most of the times I don't do it. If I report a bug to a mailing
list, the coder/coders don't have tons of bugs to handle, why should I
repeat the report. It's useful to repeat the report on a bugtracker, if
the coders have to take control about tons of bugs.

However, where should people report bugs with ALSA? I've seen many
people asking for help, reporting bugs, without getting a reply, I often
recommend those people to subscribe to LAU/LAD ;).
