Cross Fading Audio Found

[Janina Sajka]

Jack seems to be very much the direction that most people doing serious audio work with Linux are taking. The only serious criticism I've heard against adopting Jack into the package distros is that it doesn't support streaming over a network. Not that it couldn't, just that it currently doesn't address that.

I think we need something like Jack, so I certainly encourage more attention to its development.
