hmm, i think we need now some release engineering.

ALSA 0.9.x series has been released as the STABLE line, and that means
that the API should be kept as much as possible.  i don't think it's good
to include the experimental code for a fundamental change to such a
tree (even in cvs).

i know it's a bit annoying to keep both different cvs branches
up-to-date.  but now it's the time to separate clearly what we've done
and what we'll do.  this will make it easy to release the newer 0.9.x
tarball, too.

well, if we were to use bitkeeper, it would be easier to keep the different
trees in sync... :)
