Hi Marek,
sounds like a good idea. I dont mind that this list is public. I think
we should in all areas let the manufacturers see (and feel) that there
is a strong linux community out there. And that this community will
prefer manufacturers that provide it with development resources in one
or the other form. After recent (non-rme, non-audio related)
frustrations I think there are even good reasons to form some sort of
platform or organisation for this. Something like a lobbying group but I
am probably reinventing the wheel and that already exists.

Hi all,
following the conclusion of a very long discussion on both LAD and LAU
mailinglists, i would like to invite you all to participate in an event
that should take place on RME's official forum.
The goal is to run a thread on linux audio and RME support. Not a
discussion, but rather just raising your hand if you are a customer and
letting them know what hardware you are using, or whether you are
interested in their products or plan to purchase one if you are not a
customer of RME todate.
Please, if you are a RME customer, let them at least know what hardware
you are using.
You are free to express your feelings and you are free to express no
feelings if you do not wish.
Please avoid using swearwords.
In case you haven't found the thread, feel free to start it.
"Hi, i'm a linux audio user and i'm using your prod. X with linux audio
and i plan to continue using your products in the future (upgrades, new
products) if there will be future support from RME by providing
specifications" or something along these lines.
We need to agree on the topic so that people can easily find it:
"Linux audio, ALSA and RME support"
In case you are not satisfied with the topic, let us know so that we can
agree upon another one. Please be sure to post in that thread.
In case you have friends that use linux audio with RME and are not LAD
or LAU subscribers, please let them know.
The forum can be found here:
News server: news.x-networks.de
Forum: rme-audio.forum
In case you have troubles finding the right software in order to reach
the forum, here are some suggestions:

In case somebody knows of other newsreader software please let us know.
Ok, let's go! :)
thanks
