As far as I understand he points out weaknesses in "usability" and "integration", his favourite pet project "Utopia" (HAL, D-Bus ..) is supposed to solve.

On a related note, next month's issue of German language Linux Magazin (i work for) will focus on professional audio in a more euphemistic way :) best Oliver
