So the long run solution to the free audio problem is to persuade
everyone in our society to provide whatever he or her does for free and

should want it.
Why don't you start by persuading yourself to provide whatever you do
for free, etc? It's easy to insist that others should do free work for
you. But are you ready to do full time hard work for free for the others?
The mid term solution is to learn to attract money to the point where
linux audio software can be developed full time.
Brilliant idea. Someone else should pay to somebody else so that you can
get Linux audio software for free. What about paying for the software
yourself?
About the original subject: IMHO the only way to attract more Linux
audio developers is paying for the software. Money is the reason why 90%
of people do any work. Practically all professional audio software
developers do they work for Win/Mac because the _paying_ customers use
them. Linux audio software is being developed by amateurs because there
is no market for professional developers.
