New description:
Now icedtea has been forked to separate audio utilities and main JVM. Only
a mercurial snapshot is available [http://icedtea.classpath.org/hg
/icedtea-sound/file/86856b2e3d18] (thanks Fernando).
I do not know when the release is expected, (the NEWS file has
version=1.0.0).
The plan would be to test and upload this snapshot to anduin.

Replying to [comment:3 dj@…]:
> I have to say that I disagree pretty strongly about the need for sound.
IcedTea-Sound-1.0.0 was released on 7/18. Are you guys still including the
plug-in in the binary distribution (not sure if the goal is still to mimic
the closed distribution, or just provide a bootstrap build)? If so, then
this should probably be included as well.
There is no sound right now in the latest binary distribution on anduin.
It is useless for the purpose of bootstrapping, and it seems nobody using
the binary for something else has spoken up yet.
I agree that icedtea-sound should be added to the book, though. I do not
know how close we are from the freeze. I guess it could be ready by the
end of the week.
