Patrick, Nobody, me included, thought anyone would promote anything except the truth. We can certainly work on the plans and figure out what to promote, and when to promote it. I'm in need of a better MIDI setup first. If anything in the Linux environment could run along side of my Pro Tools setup, giving me what I need (instrument naming, better program changes, scoring, etc.) then I could just wait for Ardour to get there on the audio side. One step at a time with a vision of where we're going.

We scratch their back and they will be less resistant to scratching ours. I agree with Mark that we shouldn't be promoting Linux Audio as fully functioning because we will get a negative reaction which will be hard to overcome. There is definite scope for targetting the techies though. As long as we don't promote lies we will be doing a lot more for our image than most consumers expect from advertising campaigns. -- Patrick Shirkey - Boost Hardware Ltd.
