> Yeah, looking forward to bringing that to [community] actually! :)

wow, thanks ! but it's not ready for prime-time yet, it's still in alpha.
I'll drop you a mail when sufficient battle-testing will have occured,
hopefully by the end of the year.

Okay, that's what I was wondering about. I'm going to rummage a bit through
my soundcards's spec sheets to see if they mention this. Thanks !
