Subject: My issues with the ALSA API
Date: Thu, 10 Apr 2008 00:15:12 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080409221512.GA4466@tango.0pointer.de> (raw)

Heya!

A while back I compiled a list of issues I found with the ALSA API
while I was hacking PulseAudio. I kept it up to date ever since. It
has the title "Why I hate ALSA", but this is merely a catchy
title, I am not trying to offend anyone, nor do I think that the ALSA
API is particularly bad.

Back at FOMS in January this year, I showed this list to James. He
acknowledged most of those issues. But I am sure that the other ALSA
devs might be interested too:

Comments welcome!

Thank you,

Lennart
