Is it Logitech, or is it through personal dedication of some people? If it *was* Logitech, I think they should have released the entire project to open source *after* removing any dependency to that rare and doomed thing, msb.com. But I guess some dependency is programmed into firmware (which I think could be removed off the Xilinx FPGAs). What Logitech did was bizarre. What individuals committed to the ecosystem did and continue to do, is beyond heroic. I wish they'd set up Paypal accounts. Perhaps as a community we could show them they could turn this into a profitable commercial effort. ...pablo Server: Virtual Machine (on VMware Workstation 12) running Ubuntu 16.04 + LMS 7.9 System: SB Touch --optical->- Benchmark DAC2HGC --AnalysisPlus Oval Copper XLR->- NAD M22 Power Amp --AnalysisPlus Black Mesh Oval->- Totem Element Fire Other Rooms: 2x SB Boom; 1x SB Radio; 1x SB Classic-> NAD D7050 -> Totem DreamCatcher + Velodyne Minivee Sub Computer audio: workstation --USB->- audioengine D1 -> Grado PS500e/Shure 1540 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pablolie's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3816 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107002 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
