Orm, I must say that I think this is the biggest bunch of crap I've seen on a Linux list in a long time. This list is no place for this sort of discussion and it's really a low act on your part to publish innuendo and rumor like it was the truth.
Even if it was true (AND I'M NOT SAYING IT IS. I HAVE NO INFORMATION AT ALL.) that Paul was not hired for some job at Sun, there are about a 1000 other potential reasons why that might have happened vs. some rumor of his technical capabilities, and I do not see what bearing a Sun-Ray job has on Alsa development anyway. I think the fact that you are publishing nothing but rumor is really a lousy thing to do and that you should apologize to the group here and to Paul personally for such a childish act. Even if you have real data, this is no place to play these games, and this is no way to do it. If this was a moderated reflector I would ask to have you banned. What a piece of work you are. I am not a member of the Jack Development list so my response is not going there. If a member of that list sees any reason to send my note there, please do.
