You seem surprised? The flames don't come from mentioning commercial endeavors using free software - you'll find very few people who are actually anti-making-money (a common misunderstanding about free software people) The flames come when you start talking about linux + proprietary software... (and some of them will be from myself, for the record). Free-as-in-speech and all that noise. There's nothing wrong with making commercial products out of LAD software - I doubt anyone's going to have a negative attitude about making jack/linux/etc based drop-in networked synths/etc. It's a pretty cool idea, someone might even help. :) -DR-
