Well, I'm sadly not a developer, but using GNU/Linux I learnt to promote

just simply apply the same reasoning to the Linux Audio world?
As a scratch, this is what I will start "preaching" for now on:
* Want audio on GNU/Linux? Use ALSA + jack _directly_.
* Distros like Linspire are already doing it (¿in the same way that Suse
did with ALSA?) Why aren't you??? (in a polite way, of course :-P)
* More stuff like that.
It's simple, and we as a LA* comunity have our contacts with each part
of the libre software world. Just a matter of starting preaching it, I
guess...

Well I think that there is absolutly no border
between "Professional"
Audio and "Non-Professional" Audio.
Just think about it, today you're using mainly xmms to play some
ogg-files, but suddenly you become a little creative, und you want to
do some drumming with hydrogen. I see no reason why somebody would
screw up his whole configuration just because he suddenly switched
from beeing a "consumer" to beeing a "professional".
So propably jack is the only way out for the desktop :)
FWIW, Linspire (formerly Lindows) have made the same conclusion, and
their next release will use JACK for all desktop audio.
