As some of you already know, I will be working part time only for Canonical during most of next year. This will mean that my time for PulseAudio upstream work will be extremely limited and kept to a minimum. In particular, I will not have the time to try to guide/review Tanu's routing system from now on, sorry. I've tried to refocus Tanu to provide a solution in small steps; where every new step solves another practical problem for our users, instead of building a mountain of infrastructure first, and think of what problems it would solve later. I don't think I've succeeded very well in this quest; as we still have 50+ patches so far, that don't seem to practically solve anything. So maybe it's time to leave that ball in some other person's ball park anyhow. That said; all of us should take a well deserved break next week; regardless of whether you believe in Christ, the flying spaghetti monster, or nothing at all, and come back with renewed strength next year. I think we all could need it, at least I know I do. -- David Henningsson, Canonical Ltd. https://launchpad.net/~diwic
