LOL! That's a good one! David, meet Jack. David, Jack. David, Jack. ... 
"Is your name not Jack?" .. "no" ..."that's going to cause a little 
confusion, mind if we call you Jack, just to keep it clear?"

Well OK, I guess all of the lobbying here (in the ALSA-dev mailing list 
of all places) has convinced me that JACK is indeed the way to go. At 
the very least I could suggest that our customers install the CCRMA on 
top of their RedHat platform..

My only complaint with the CCRMA stuff is that it forces them to install 
apt-get, which is not really sound related, and not packaged with RedHat 
by default. But apart from that (which is indeed a very minor beef) it 
seems like a great idea to have a low-latency pre-packaged solution. 
Certainly this is a lot easier than telling them how to patch their 
kernel, etc.

I guess this means that I will have to start reading JACK documentation 
in earnest. I trust that there is such a thing.. ;)
