I think getting ardour into Sid could benefit the project in the sense that it opens the code to a larger audience and speed up tracking bugs (after all, that's all about what Open Source is). Your program would stay in Sid until it gets stable and thereby benefit the contribution of a large community of developpers. Since Debian has really strict quality policy, your code wouldn't be allowed to enter 'unstable' version anyway until it's mostly bug-free. Cheers. -- Eric VAN BUGGENHAUT [EMAIL PROTECTED]
