It's not Adobe who did the PA support, it was actually -- me! I know it was you :) I just meant to say that the original libflashsupport (with ALSA support, iirc) was made by Adobe. > Also, libflashsupport is not exactly at the zenith auf API > design or implementation. Dunno if it is useful as a positive example. You are a much better judge for this sort of things than most of us :) But even if the implementation of libflashsupport sucks, it at least gives "the community" the opportunity to fix or adapt proprietary software to our new APIs. And _that_ is a nice idea which should be encouraged. But yeah, writing a clean ALSA client that doesn't try to be clever is also a very good starting point. Cheers R?mi
