I think, that a linux audio user list (LAU?) would be the most important
next step. Unfortunatly linux-audio-using still means, that one has to be
familiar with too much development issues. The reason is obvious: a lot of
the interesting audio software still is in heavy development (pbd's stuff,
ALSA, you name it...) So the first step is to compile everything. At this you
can get help in the various mailing lists, but if it comes to producing
some sound, there is no general mailing list that can help. LAD is IMO not
the place for this, but it is the only one :-(
bye,
