i didn't "take it off". i tried to rewrite it so that it didn't sound
as if we were just starting out. ALSA isn't complete, but its hardly
in a "still working on the basic design" phase. i thought the text
should reflect this so that first-time visitors would get a better
feeling for it as a working system. the old description sounded to me
like a reflection of where ALSA was a year or two ago.

Sounds good to me.

I tried hard to write a two line explanation, but I couldn't.

   ^^^^^^^^^^

I think its very VERY VERY important that this not be presented this
way. ALSA offers binary OSS compatibility with no modifications needed
(except for some OSS-mmap apps like quake) Nothing extra is needed to
make them work.

the OSS compat library does a *lot* more than provide OSS
compatibility. we need a new name for it that reflects it capabilities
(routing OSS apps through alsa-lib).

we do not want anyone imagining they have to relink their apps to get
them to work with ALSA, since thats not true.
