I think the only sane thing about it is that

without an extra database of the package management system
-lets you easily install/switch betwe
in /usr, while the old one is in /usr/local.
Result: new program doesnt work, as /usr/local has priority, and the user is
confused. He probably just removed the sources as they were taking space
and cant -or doesnt know- about make uninstall.
as paul says, opt/ is a fine solution for this, as everything just symlinks,

Well, personally I'd like to contribute to MIDI support for jack, i
think would
be great if it can handle midi, since it's already nice and
consistent.
How are you planning to do this? adding midi in/out ports besides the
audio ones?
I think if going that far, it would be nice at future, if it could
also add some sort of control
streams, such as start/stop/pause/set position,etc.

be able to save/load projects and go back to them in no time. A good
thing about this is that it resembles
more how studios work, with all their equipment interconnected, so in
some way this should make easier
to integrate external stuff to our "projects".

apturing back the audio without da/ad problems, sharing the output in

This also can make life easier for ALSA driver developers who can
give less priority to supporting such features in the soundcard

vel or
something?) so it can capture and automatically "jackify" the data
from existing apps that use the native api (alsa/oss emulation).
The stream doesnt need to go "low latency" (and from what I know JACK
should support normal latency apps fine) but you can still route
existing apps and share the the device.
How realistic do you think this approach is?

more natural approach to this is just

I think he meant using it for measuring the time between calls,
in unixes we have gettimeofday for this, but in windows there isnt really any way to
do it, since there's no way to get high res timing beyond 10ms.
Juan Linietsky
eable? I know RTC works by using int 8 in x86
and that high timings in a very old machine can hog the cpu due to the high amount of
irq calls. But in the case of nowadays computers, i dont see why it should be a
problem to have rtc enabled by default to the max speed and give each client
frequencies based on divisors of it.
