Best sound card producers for linux

[Dennis Jansen <Dennis.Jansen@web.de>]

Dear Developers,

as the support by sound card producers is very important for a driver to 
work completely and perfectly it would be nice for us users to know, 
which companies supply the most information and help out most during 
writing the drivers. That could be shown on the homepage for users as a 
buying orientation.
I think it is important that users are encouraged to buy their soundcard 
for linux, too.

So please you developers - support us, the users, and help yourself by 
telling us which companies cooperate best.
This should encourage the ones that don't as well as give the users an 
aid in buying a linux-friendly card.
And it's not much work for you guys to just post it on the webpage.

If you find that to help out a lot, then consider creating a 
certificate-logo for linux audio support by ALSA.
For that certificate a license could be bought from companies for 
supported cards. That fee then can help the development of more and 
better audio drivers.

I hope my suggestions are new, effective and easy to realize.

Thanks to all OpenSource developers-
for all your work already,
for reading this mail,
for everything!
