You know, I'm beginning to get a little tired of comments like this.

Nobody is twisting your arm. If you don't want to use Yoshimi... then don't.
However why do you think you need to try and dissuade anyone else from doing so?
Do you know Yoshimi's roadmap? No of course you don't. I'd guess you don't even
know what Yoshimi can currently do.

While I intend to keep file compatibility with ZynAddSubFX as far as possible,
we are going on a different ride - and I see no reason to reveal exactly what
this is to such a hostile audience.

As well as having the opportunity to take Yoshimi in directions I and friends
want, I am learning a great deal about coding in the process. Therefore, even if
I end up being the only person running it, I intend Yoshimi to stay around, at
least as long as I do, so you'd best get used to the idea.

P.S.
You may be surprised to learn that I have on a number of occasions reported
bugs in ZynAddSubFX to the devs with as much detail as I could, so in no way are
they losing out.
