certainly hold a grudge if I choose to.
However, I do think there is a bit of stagnation on this list over the
past year or so. It seems that we have reached a plateau currently where
there is not much to discuss. If anything my intention is to kickstart
some discussions that could lead to more interesting developments...
To redirect some of this energy, how about trying to figure out pulseaudio for
the common user, who may want to do uncommon things. I have 2 audio systems
in this box, and PA refuses to recognize the Audigy2 (emu10k1 driven) card I
use for everything BUT skype. If I want sound at all, I have to excise as
much of it as kde will allow in order that my sound work at all.

I'd rather be led to hell than managed to heavan.
As a
member, contributor and advocate for Linux Audio for the past 10
years I am also interested in discussing the above issues with other
members of the list as I think there is a lot to be learned and
possibly advanced.
you're right: there's no stupid questions. IMHO as linux-audio-devs
we're not really qualified to discuss libre-energy questions; Thanks for
sharing though; it provoked few good responses from Pieter, Fons and
others that I liked and learned from.
