is there a way to find out if anyone is actively pursuing adding the recording functionality
to the maestro-2e driver?

i would like to offer them my assistance.   i am not a programmer, but am willing to help
in other ways (researching, testing, writing docs, whatever).

also, Taku, if you have already have a working albeit somewhat imperfect solution, would
you be willing to submit it to the FBSD project?  perhaps whoever is in charge of the
pcm / ESS drivers would be willing to review the code.  (i am only hoping here.  i have
no idea about the code submission process...)

hoping only to find out more about this (and help out, if that is possible).
many thanks to all who reply.


cheers,
epilogue
