The idea of a facelift sounds good, this might prompt me to look at the rest of the site. The front page is rather 'dry' and looks like it's only intended for developers/experienced users - I'm also not keen on that pale grey-green colour, but that's a personal thing. A more informative & extensive contents listing here would probably encourage me to use more of the site. > Can you tell me what things you would like to have on the website that > are not already there?

I don't know if 'rating' is quite the thing. But info on things like soundfont support, whether the external MIDI port is known to work or not would be useful info. > All opinions will be considered so don't hold back ;-] and while we're at it: http://www.agnula.org/documentation/dp_tutorials/alsa_jack_ladspa/ and these also may be useful: http://www.suse.de/~mana/alsa090_howto.html http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=AlsaGlossary http://www.alsa-project.org/~goemon As you've asked, I'll go look at the site a bit more deeply. That said, It's a useful resource, thanks for even bothering :-) cheers tim hall
