 This could be done in any Distro so there would not be a real
 Ubuntustudio anymore. 
I don't agree completely since our focus is not *just* audio, though we
know that's our biggest user segment.
  The major strength of UBuntustudio is its
 near-perfect integration of a audiosystem with a friendly desktop-distro.
 I can run VMWare and NVIDIA-Drivers easily with the UBuntu rt kernel
 would be a major p.i.t.a. do make stuff like that run with a self made
 kernel. 
These could also be the very things you lose.

 This would be perfectly acceptable for me :-)

 BTW: what is so extremely important in .27? new hardwaresupport not
 achievable with .26? 
 
Much better suspend/resume support along with many bug-fixes and device
support.
