Don't forget that there's never such a thing as "one size fits all",
only "one size fits most" at best.

I don't see myself as ever running Audiality (much less writing code that
relies on it) because I do not like the idea of having to run RT-Linux.
I'm a hobbiest musician, not a professional, so I'm not willing to
dedicate a machine to the job; I only run general purpose OS's. This
doesn't mean I think there's no place for Audiality, but I don't think
it's realistic to expect _all_ the Linux audio developers to target that
single niche.

Besides, I don't think I've ever even written a program "for Linux". I
write for Posix or for the JVM and test/use it on Linux. Here's a new
poll for the day: How many of you developers on the LAD list only target
Linux?

Just a cent or two,
Div.
