Now, if ESI cannot even provide this, we should highlight ESI in RED in the sound card matrix.
As you can guess, it was this sentence that prompted me to reply directly to the list. In my opinion, your comment is unfair and simply ignoring major parts of what I wrote in my mail to Piotr. I have shown a certain level of commitment and your response basically tells me that you are not even interested ... if more people would share your views, ALSA would have made no development at all in the last 5 years I guess.
I think it is only fair to mention that for FreeBoB, ESI was the first company to provide us with hardware to develop with. They provided us with a QuataFire610 even before we had a single line of code. Compared to the hassle we experience with other vendors, even to date, I consider this a very open and constructive attitude.
