CSL is a wrapper around a wrapper (aRts or MAS or SDL) to the sound
driver.

CSL is in C, so KDE will need yet another wrapper to wrap it.  (On the
other hand if you wrote it in C++, maybe you could easily export a C
API at the same time)

Isn't this too much?  Aren't any time benefits with MAS going to get
killed with all these wrappers?  Is it really that hard to pick one
good future media/audio server strategy and commit to it? :-)

Apologies if I misunderstood anything or if I'm repeating something
already said.

Cheers,
Navin.
