By that reasoning the logical thing to do would be to merge Rosegarden,

it may be more efficient in the short term, I think that having lots of
choices is good in the long term. The more choices the better.

This seem to me a very strange post! Why this
frustration! Here this guy
is actually trying to improve what he (and probably others) figures is a
problem within the world of linux. So he begins to write a program to
fix it instead of moaning about it. And then he announces it - only to
get bashed by one of the key figures in the linux audio world. Strange!
what is the number one issue facing pro-audio/music-oriented linux audio
right now, other than the need for every single possible hardware
interface to work? *developers*. there isn't a single project that
couldn't use a at least a few more developers. every single project:
Rosegarden, MuSE, Lilypond, Aldrin, Ardour, JACK, Seq24, Ingen,
Hydrogen, even ALSA itself, plus many more fine efforts that i've failed
to name. they all need people to add new functionality, to fix bugs, to
grow, scale, handle new goals and more.
