What amounts to open-source hardware has been around for a long, long
time. Project schematics and board layouts have been available in
magazines and books for over 50 years. What's being proposed here is
really no different, except in attempting to get a bit more peer
review of the design than

if its specs are open, and it can be manufactured without special
facilities, why wouldn't anyone simply contract with
and sell them for the lowest price? the lowest
price might be good for consumers, but its bad for whoever wants to
try

I would think the following project would be of great interest. While not
technically a sound card, I was thinking it could be extended for use as a
programmable effects box.

Look for the postings by Jussi Laako,
it includes nice latency graphs.
The results are quite stunning :)

What's wrong with 100mb ethernet? That has even
Here's a scheduler patch for 2.4.17. It looks like it changes a bunch of
operations to O(1). I wasn't sure if this would be better for latency or
throughput ( which are in conflict, right?). It also looks like it is
being fixed to work with the pre-emp patch.
Here's the link to the summerary.
No one wants to deny that there is a need for apps which can take down
[insert favorite commercial audio/sequencing program here]. We will have
them soon enough. I don't think anyone has tried to disuade anyone from
working on such apps, or from using them once they become available. I

Dear all,
I wrote a small howto for using the Midiman Delta 66 with
the Alsa driver. Its just a start, but maybe you find it
useful. If you are interested, look at

Any comments are welcome.

Hello!
I am not into hardware and don't really know what is needed for an open
project like this. Maybe someone will be interested in OpenCores project
which provides open-source RISC processor and other chips.
