Frankly, I don't see how (d) can compete with (c), which is used and cared for by several Linux distributions as well as used and tested by several million people. Do we really want to pull in maintainership of our own OpenAL implementation (for no good reason)? And that after you were absent for a few years and just threatened to leave again "for good"? What if people start to complain about FlightGear's OpenAL not working with the latest MSys/Cygwin/OS-XI or "Microsoft Fluffy"[TM]? Sorry, but that sounds like a suboptimal deal. But I won't do the work either way, so I better shut up now. m. :-} ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/flightgear-devel
