1) just a quick note to point out that whether you know it or not, the
email program you are using is sending out copies of your mail in both
plain text and HTML formats. increasingly on the net, there are
filters being put in place that silently dump HTML-formatted
email. some mailing lists will not ever accept such posts. as long as
you do this, you are (1) wasting network bandwidth by sending messages
that are typically more than twice as long as they could be (2) making
it harder for people using traditional email readers to read them (3)
risking the chance that people will never see your mail because its
filtered before reaching their email inbox.

as a user, sure, they operate in quite different niches. but as a
*developer* i can assure that they are all comparable in the sense
that they are all attempts to answer a very related set of
questions. the more you work on sophisticated audio software, the more
it becomes apparent how there really aren't that many designs out
there for doing this stuff.
