As you may know, I have written a small "wrapper"-application that makes csound a jack/alsa-sequencer client. At this moment this is hosted as a seperate project on sourceforge. I would like developer access to csound CVS to put this in a seperate directory jcsound (or jack-csound or csoundJACK, whatever seems best) in csound5/frontends, next to csound and csound VST. The reasons for a seperate csoundJACK program is that there is functionality in the jack system that cannot be adressed by the portaudio drivers. for example: The strength of the jack-system is in the interconnecting of different audio-apps. It is very desirable to maintain these (sometimes complex) connections between renderings of csound orc/sco's. Gerard -- electronic & acoustic musics-- http://www.xs4all.nl/~gml
