Just committed some changes to FluidSynth CVS (wow first commit this
year!) and thought I would send an update on the status of FluidSynth.

fluidsynth.org is now up and running again (thanks Peter whatever you
did :) and has a new logo that I rendered using Blender.

We are looking for a new FluidSynth maintainer.  I have now realized
that I don't have the time to develop Swami/libInstPatch and FluidSynth
all at the same time.  I'm still planning on coding on FluidSynth and
helping where I can (so the new maintainer need not feel alone).  If you
are interested, please post to the list or privately as you please.  I
have some ideas of what the future of FluidSynth could look like, and I
know there is a growing list of feature requests, so some innovation is
needed.

As to the CVS commit:
- New README-OSX for Panther, thanks to Ebrahim Mayat

- Sean Bolton's DSSI patch adds support for runtime polyphony changes
and fixes some bugs

- Modified the volume attenuation calculation functions to coincide with
what we think the EMU 8k/10k uses (contrary to the SoundFont spec),
thanks to Takashi Iwai for pointing this out and the TiMidity++ code for
providing the example.  This should fix sounds that seemed too quiet.
Some additional work needs to be done on the volume envelope though,
since releases now cutoff at a louder volume.

- Fixed modulation LFO to volume modulation (was inverted)

Happy noise and music making!
