I'm actually interested only in the ALSA development and I have not much
time to use Linux as an audio platform.
I would recommend you two persons using Linux for audio:
Benno Senoner <sbenno_AT_gardena.net>
Paul Barton-Davis <pbd_AT_op.net>
Also, many topics were discussed on following lists, although they are
fixed for development things:
linux-audio-dev_AT_ginette.musique.umontreal.ca
alsa-devel_AT_alsa-project.org
I'm ready to answer concrete questions about the audio kernel interface
and the ALSA project.
