OK, so the situation looks fairly good, we have a few active
developers and/or testers.  And the current code doesn't look so
terrible despite of it being in staging directory.  That said, I think
we can promote this stuff into sound/usb/line6 directory, then apply
Chris' cleanup patches, and work on it further.

Does it sound OK for you guys?  Greg?

Once when I get approval, I'll start a new clean branch on sound.git
tree so that you guys can work on it further for 3.20 kernel.


thanks,

Takashi
