Hello all,

        I'd like to introduce the current CVS changes regarding the alsa
driver code. I decided to separate future kernel code and the development
code. The ALSA kernel code is placed in alsa-kernel CVS module
(alsa-kernel directory). The directory structure has been designed using
the Linus demands, but it is not finally approved at the moment.
Nevertheless, it allows me to quickly react on future demands. The current
alsa-driver directory contains only the development drivers (such as
pdplus, isapnp code for 2.2 kernels) and most of files (including
makefiles - finally) are redirects to the alsa-kernel directory.

        The major change is in naming of toplevel modules. Linus does not
like the form 'snd-card-xxxx' so we settled that the toplevel modules have
straigh names and other modules will contains something like '-lib' suffix.

Example (old names):

snd-card-cs4231         - toplevel module
snd-cs4231              - library with the CS4231 driver

New names:

snd-cs4231              - toplevel module
snd-cs4231-lib          - library with the CS4231 driver

        I'd like to ask you for patience with these changes. I'll try to
fix possible configuration and compilation problems ASAP.

                                                Jaroslav
