That makes tons of sense for > the Pro Market I'm so sorry to be the one to inject the reality (read: doom and gloom) here... there's absolutely no way in hell Avid will ever hire/train or otherwise enlist linux developers to create a whole freaking new distro.... ever. They're not in the OS business, and never will be... I was suggesting the very remote and distant possiblity of a linux-embedded automated console... not a distro. I'll bet the house on this one -> DigiDesign will not become a linux distributor/vendor. We really should all be throwing our shoulders behind ardour, working to make a DAW better than PT anyway. Mark, maybe we should raise the issue of PTLE interoperability on the ardour-dev list again? Paul was open to it when last it came up... it was just disecting that session format/file standing in the way IIRC. -ry -- Ryan Gallagher <ruinaudio@xxxxxxxxxxx>
