Also, split patches for easier review. Okay, none of us may be as expert in audio as raster, but very small part is about it. In a way, we can act as users of the API in the review, also reviewing all the other bits. But as is the patch is a major dump that would be rejected by us and every other projects. I hope raster understands our points. -- Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri http://profusion.mobi embedded systems -------------------------------------- MSN: barbi...@gmail.com Skype: gsbarbieri Mobile: +55 (19) 9225-2202 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ RSA(R) Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1 _______________________________________________ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel
