Hi all,
I started to work with audio software on Linux about one year ago and
wrote down
my experiences in a small weblog. Since I managed to get things on the way,
I thought it would be time to sum up the experiences I made in the past
year.
The result is a small midterm-report and I would be glad to hear some of
your thoughts.
Not about the article itself but about the questions I had before I
started to use Linux as
audio production base, about the answers you might have found and about
your personal Likes and Dislikes.

I think you missed a couple of advantages of Linux tools - 1) the
ability to directly ask the author(s) for a feature or bug fix and, in
many cases, get not only an answer but the the feature or bug fix back
in a relatively short time (at no cost in most cases). 2) The "company"
can go out of business and the tool won't be unsupported (unless
absolutely no one was using it). Even in that case, if you have some
money, you could probably hire someone to do some work on it.
