Maybe you should start or help an exisiting open source project based around this sort of thing. Thats why all this linux software exists, people have a need, and they satisfy it themselves. Ive worked on open source projects, and this has always been my motiviation. Youd be suprised how much you can contribute, even if your not a great programmer. Sound apps (especially in games) are always hard for programmers, as we dont really know much about sound, and just helping some programmers who need some information might be enough to get some of these features implemented in existing open source projects. I persoannally (as a console games developer primarily) have never written my own music engine for a game, and as far as writing music goes, ive always been a big fan of mod trackers, like soundtraker and the amiga one whos name ive completely forgotten.
