Developers are usually familiar with ALSA and know where
to look for further information. To me, the main strength
of the website should be for end-user information like
how to set up and configure ALSA drivers and modules so
clear links to HOWTOS and anything that eases the pain
for new ALSA users to get the most out of their audio
systems would be great.

I recently showed a Mac user interested in using Linux
for live stage work (no gui needed) the ALSA site so they
could get some idea of progress... they just laughed and
said there was _nothing_ there to help them evaluate whether
ALSA (therefor Linux) was going to be useful to them... well,
not within a 5 minute perusal anyway.

No doubt a slash/nuke-like portal would be asking too much ?
