I would like to point out that the ControlsRedesign page listed above is
still being worked on for the current development activity and is to be
aligned with a blueprint: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntustudio-
controls/+spec/update-and-add-functionality-in-ubuntustudio-controls/

We also realized that many users install ubuntustudio packages on top of
a vanilla ubuntu install, so the changes are keeping this in mind as
well.

For Natty release are goals are:
 * audio turned kernel
    * check if -lowlatency kernel or -rt kernel is installed
    * if not, provide easy method to install per user choice (i.e. click here 
to install kernel X)
 * audio group
    * check if user is in audio group
    * if not, provide easy method to install per user choice (i.e. click here 
to add user to audio group)
 * fix broken changes in jack
    * memlock and rtprio are now set in etc/security/limits.d/audio.conf
    * removing nice setting as it has been argued to not effect audio 
performance
 * new firewire kernel stack
    * no longer necessary to add user to video group for firewire permissions 
(handled in udev i believe)

A few other ideas have been floating around including:
 * adding rtirq script to help find and correct irq conflicts
 * providing centralized location to install restricted items (i.e. flash, mp3 
codec, etc)


** We would appreciate other user's suggestions for what they would like 
included in an updated ubuntustudio-controls. **
