Yes, 'all' multimedia and proaudio packages in Debian and almost all in
Ubuntu are packaged by the Debian Multimedia Team! Also people who have
Ubuntu as main distro, work for that team, cause when it's in Debian
it's deadly simple and fast to get it in the Ubuntu repo's to. So
multimedia (PPA) packagers, join the team and help improve Debian |
Ubuntu | Linux for proaudio (and backport it to your famous PPA if you
like). :)
