[LAU] Re: FLOSS Audio editors on Linux: are they all dead(-ish)?

Hi LAU and LAD, It seems that (FLOSS) audio editors (not DAWs) are all either dead/obsolate (mhwaveditor, rezound), in strange development states (Audacity, Tenacity). Tenacity, the most promising (albeit with its audacity-inherited idiosyncrasies) has a really annoying bug [1] which makes it take ages to load [1] - IMHO a no go for an audio editor IMHO (plus its multi-track-ness like Audacity makes it overload for a few use cases). The only more-or-less usable one at the moment is ocenaudio which is not free software (and also has some UI quirks, but that's maybe personal). I've been a fan of mhWaveEdit for its mix of simplicity and configurability, but as an abandoned GTK2 application it shows its problems. Is this kind of software not interesting any more? Are people using DAWs for everything? Are people even using, or interested / committed in using Linux Audio any more? As LAC approaches (unfortunately I won't be able to attend, even though it's in Europe), why not try to spark some debate :-P
