Thanks for the vote of confidence! > Do you mean the ALSA developers? Audioscience does its drivers for ALSA, > no volunteers needed. :) Not so fast... we at audioscience would love to have some help with our ALSA driver and our underlying HPI driver. We are a small company that supports various Micros~1 flavours as well as Linux 2.4 and 2.6 kernel variations. I am the single person who does all the linux stuff, and would still say I don't know enough to do it easily or properly. (Of course I have had help from our customers and other alsa developers, and kudos to Takashi Iwai for doing the work to incorporate our ALSA driver into the alsa tree) So step right up... > > would be interested in producing pro audio cards (not just broadcast) > > with driver help from the OS community.
