Hi Takashi,

Thanks for the reply. I'm very glad that you like it. Do you have any strong reason for moving it into ALSA upstream? If not, I would like to keep it in chromium code base. It's also easy for developers to send patches via gerrit ( chromium-review.googlesource.com). I can be responsible for reviewing these changes. If installing from the source code is not quick enough, we can create the new package for it. Besides, it is easier for me to maintain this tool.

The biggest advantage by upstreaming would be the acceptance by many distros, so increasing the user base and more deployment.

But I don't mind keeping in the downstream side, too, unless we get more demands.

thanks,

Takashi

Best, Yu-Hsuan

Great, it's something I wanted to see for long time.
Let us know if you'd like to put this to ALSA upstream.

thanks,

Takashi
