Mention this at Linux audio user and Linux audio devel mailing lists and then don't forget to explain them the GPL, because somebody who forked Aeolus was forced to delete his fork. Most people are on Fons side. He GPL'ed the code and is not willing to make some changes, so somebody forked it, but that nowadays is forbidden too.

Which are very conservative, anti-technology and whatever you want, like it or not. Any changes that violate that principle, no matter how convenient to the average user, destroy that quality and consequently harm my interests as an author. Maybe you find that difficult to understand, but that's how it is. Maybe the free software community fails to understand that, in which case I feel completely justified not to contribute to it. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
