Re: [linux-audio-user] Tracktion & Wine

When that framework is "opensourced", well, I too would be interested in participating and I am good at it :-). Problem is that to get into this, a company needs a business plan far different than conventional. Sun has a two-tiered approach: Sell Star Office to those who want support, give out OpenOffice to the rest of us. Sun, however, is in the computer business. Mackie is basically a hardware house. I wish I could afford a nice mixer panel from them. Will it be profitable for them, after the giveaway ends, to sell Tracktion and add-ons for it, remains to be seen (as this is not really their focus and maintaining software can be a pain (and resource drain) in the butt). Opensourcing the whole kitandkaboodle and selling related/dedicated hardware for it might be an alternative (and the giveaway might just be testing these waters).
