[linux-audio-user] M$/SuSE/ALSA ?

Greetings:

As many of you already know, SuSE has entered into an interesting 5-year
plan with Microsoft. You can find the details on Slashdot and
elsewheres, so I won't rehash them here.

What isn't mentioned is the ALSA/SuSE connection. I'm pretty sure some
of the ALSA developers read these lists, and I'd like to hear from them
regarding the significance of their employer's new connections and
ALSA's IP and its continued development. Is this marriage happy news for
Linux sound or is it an unholy alliance signifying doom and destruction
for the world at large (and not just the Linux audio community ;) ?

Or will things just cruise along in business-as-usual mode ?

Any and all insight vastly appreciated.

Best,

dp
