this is an excellent piece of work. i'd like to more-or-less immediately add it the documentation available on the web site. there are a few picky details that need fixing (e.g. we don't actually have 32 bits of sample resolution), but the overall sense of this is great. are you OK with the idea of this going into the jack-www CVS repository? i can give you write access there so that you can commit new changes if you want, or you can just feed them through the jack-devel mailing list. actually, this seems like the perfect sort of document to put into a wiki, but at present, we don't one set up for the JACK web site. i don't know if antti has time to do this, but either way, it would be very nice to set that up so that we can get real community feedback and have the document improve in many different ways. --p
