From my POV: |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
* alsa version commited to the tree, |
| 30 |
* mplayer version has been commited, |
| 31 |
* alsa version has been removed, |
| 32 |
* general discussion started on what combinations are allowed |
| 33 |
* somewhere in between the transcode version was added |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
My rationale was and is to stop people continueing to add such versions |
| 36 |
w/o prior discussion. |
