Probably I need to make a more nuanced distinction between linuxaudio.org and linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx It's likely not true for you running all this stuff but from the outside I see the two as very intertwined. If the business of linuxaudio.org were to become a large part of what is discussed on this list, or the list was to start pushing folks to become Debian based as a policy, then I'd be disappointed. I think it's best if this list is distro neutral. What linuxaudio.org does is a different thing. AND, I get that you are NOT suggesting ANYTHING about what I'm writing is true. I'm just asking the question and developing my own point of view Thanks! - Mark _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
