Loki's usually pretty level-headed, maybe he got irked by the reference to "people who ought to know about these things (musicians)", though that didn't strike me as an insult in any way. Best, dp
I'm fine with lutes!!! ;) It's was the people who ought to know better comment. It seemed to me he was suggesting the people on this list are not actually musicans and out comments would be disregardable, which i think is far from true. Much of the music produced by this list is of quite high calibre and it isn't just recording engineers that use linux. It may however be i'd prefer to help a Balalaika player. Damn instruments with too many strings..... ;) Lutes remind me of jerzy drozd 10 string basses. Loki
