Timur, I have had the pleasure of dealing with mr Pierre on other OS/2 sound
issues (MMpack etc) and can only say that if (y'all) elect to publish
drivers for Creative PCI cards that can only help the OS/2 situation
(bunches and bunches,.... not to underestimate)

I'd pay a fair price in a heartbeat.

Perhaps I misunderstand your intent, but since there are NO O/2 drivers for
Creative PCI cards how would this be anti- competitive or suicidal?

The source code is freely available to anyone at various and sundry Linux
sites, myself having given Julian a pointer to one such site months ago.
