ALSA-drivers-writing howto updated

[Takashi Iwai]

Hi,

i've updated my alsa-drivers-writing howto document, including
corrections, more complete example codes in sub-sections, and more
detailed explanation in some unclear parts (thanks to Phil Kerr).

regarding to conversion to other formats:  Kevin Conder already
proposed to convert to DocBook, but he'll have no time until the next
weekend.

the document is found at the same place,

	http://www.alsa-project.org/~iwai/alsa-drivers-writing.txt

please give your comments, criticism and/or corrections.


ciao,

Takashi

I forgot you had done that. I have added a link to the documentation 
page now.

One day I will go through and do some prose editing unless someone else 
beats me to it.

I've ever done.

I assume the page in question is:
   http://www.alsa-project.org/documentation.php3

That is a useful page.

Suggestion:  Include that page, verbatim, in the
distribution, in
  -- lib/doc/
  -- driver/alsa-kernel/Documentation/
  -- driver/doc/
(Why are the last two distinct???)

Also, please mention it (giving its online location
AND its distributed-file locations) in
  -- driver/README
  -- driver/doc/README.1st
  -- lib/README

This makes it more likely that folks will be
able to find it when they need it.

patch please!

driver/doc is the location of documents for drivers existing only on
alsa-driver tree yet or of ones which still are not rewritten as
standard kernel documents.
