I haven't registered ELCE this year but only the audio mini-conf and maintainers summit, but maybe we can catch him on Monday. > What do people think? Any other topics?

Sorry for the late action, here are some items that came to my mind: - Possible PCM improvements: We still miss some information like the granularity. Although we had some discussions in the past, it didn't happen in the end. It's a good chance to revive the ideas. Also, PCM timestamping is another relevant topic. It's still rarely used, so far. Can we make a broader usage? - ASoC / ALSA core merges: Would it make sense to move some core stuff out of ASoC? e.g. DPCM isn't strictly ASoC-specific things. Also, it'd be great if we can foresee the plan for ASoC core refactoring that is currently going on. - Testing: My pet peeve. I'd love to see some stuff, especially for ASoC, that can run on VM, and let fuzzers whipping on it. Also, USB audio can be virtualized. What else? (not only about VM testing but also a real hardware testing.) - Community governance, maintenance issues: It's a hot topic in kernel, yeah. Do we see any issues in audio? thanks, Takashi _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
