I think we need to take a better look at SMUS first.  First of all
Soundtracker, Noisetracker, et al have the questions of legality,
and as far as I know do not run properly on the A3000 under 2.01
AmigaOS.  Someone should tackle writing a "freely distributable"
SMUS music program(s) with source available, so others will make
more use of this format.  If there are obvious deficiencies, then
we should look at defining an updated, or alternative standard.
I really doubt that the authors of soundtracker/etc. will submit
a standard format to CATS for approval, or that it would succed
if they did since there seem to be so many different authors 
involved in that area.  We have SMUS.  Lets make it usable.
