What I understood is that the API has become too big and
complicated and that Lennart would prefer a cleanup rather
than have the current version cast in stone.
Another matter is the basic PCM interface Lennart proposed
which would include the possibility to review the contents
of a large output buffer, providing both interactivity and
a low service request rate.

I believe Lennart mentioned that the API is not yet totally stable? Apps
do use it, however, and they will have to be updated if it changes.
That's my understanding, in the least.
Apart from that, *if* you want 'desktop
sound' then PA is probably
the best thing since sliced bread. I was *very* surprised to learn
that PA at the moment does not have a native API, at least not one
Lennart would want to advocate. PA would gain a lot of appeal by
providing that.
It surprises me too to read this, especially since there seems to be an
increasing number of applications that talk to PA directly. So it seems
that the API is used even without advocation.
