I think people would try using it if there was ease of access. The last time we considered an alternative kernel, somebody found rules on the Fedora wiki saying that, if we want to be an official Fedora Spin, we must use the official Fedora kernel. In my opinion, our best bet for kernel latency is our current path: build a Spin with the standard kernel, then make it easy to get the Planet CCRMA kernel installed. <hijack> I hoped the "Musicians' Guide" [0] would help with the "making easy" part. But after three releases, I haven't noticed a significant change in the Fedora audio community. Worse still, the list of things I want to revise keeps getting longer, while most of the document is still a first draft. It's not as fun or glamorous, but all copy-editing help or errors-pointing-out is appreciated. </hijack> Regards, Christopher.
