Please read the website and the comments from Lucio, he
made an article about
this discussion and he pleased me not to make an ANN in this list about his

Well, that is a remarkably short-sighted response. And it is hardly an
"article" about this discussion.
OTOH I don't demand that Lucio or any other developer explain himself.
I see clearly...
Forgive me, but no, you do not, any more than Lucio does. You've reduced
a complicated state of affairs to an "us vs. them" scenario. Are you
reading my responses ? Do you understand that there is a considerable
middle ground between the polarities of open and closed source ?
There are other developers of Linux audio software who are not active on
LAD or LAU. Interestingly their user-communities are also cut off from
these lists, i.e. there's no communication with the larger world of
Linux audio development. I do not consider that a "good thing", but
again it's a matter of choices, and if those users are happy with the
situation, then more power to them.
Best,
