Hello all, on lwn.net's latest kernel page, under 'Quotes of the week', there's the following message from Jack (O'Quin) to linux-kernel:
--cut-- We argued that the owner of a Digital Audio Workstation should be free to lock up his CPU any time he wants. But, no one would listen. We were told that we didn't really know what we needed, and were asking the wrong question. That was very discouraging. It looked like LKML was going to ignore our needs for yet another year. --cut-- The whole post is at: http://lwn.net/Articles/121652/ I hadn't been aware of these latest developments. I then found also this: http://lwn.net/Articles/120797/ Really interesting stuff. I just want to say a big thanks to Jack for pushing the lad requirements forward! As we can all see from the mail threads, it has been, and still is, quite a struggle. In any case it's great that this has now got more attention also outside lad/lau and linux-kernel lists. -- http://www.eca.cx Audio software for Linux!
