If there were a few thousand more developers, for example the different session management interfaces wouldn't be a problem. If you have, say, 3 session management interfaces, and each app supports one it effectively divides the number of apps you can use by 3 if you need session mgmt. If there were thousands of developers and as a result thousands of apps, there would still be a lot of apps left to choose... But I don't think this will happen any time soon, so I think it would be better for the existing developers to focus a bit more on compatibility with other apps. Conclusion: We are few, so we really need to work together on this ;) _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
