Don't you think that asking to compare an existing thing with a not
existing, relatively undefined one it's a bit weird? ;-)
I'm a bit confused about what LAAGA would/will be.
aserver is an application that permit to access in a very effective way
(shm transport protocol, direct mapping of server things, etc.) devices
(or pseudo devices) from different applications using the alsa-lib API.
The design guideline is "one API for everything".
About the possibility to connect one application output to input of
another application this will be done by loopback server (already
designed, not yet implemented because lack of time/funding).
