Greetings All,
Once again, thanks for the highly-informative and friendly feedback I've

received here.
I figured that it was a good time to present the report that I wrote.

The target audience is a company executive who might not have

significant knowledge of Linux and open-source development.  The data

and the suggestions are fairly obvious.  ...though the

virtualization/emulation topics may be controversial (could invite

TiVo-type troubles, or just violate the spirit of GPL).  This is for

another post...

The report is in the original form that I sent it, with the exception of

replacing the company name with XYZ, Inc.  I haven't updated it with

information that I've received from the group.  Any version 2 will be a

significant step forward.
Some of the key feedback that I've received from the group, which

belongs in there, includes:
 * awareness of 64 studio, who seem to focus on exactly the type of work

I'm trying to organize

  http://www.64studio.com/
 * the existing use of Linux (and perhaps Ardour) in various products:
   - Korg Oasys Keyboard

     http://www.korg.com/Product.aspx?pd=214
   - Harrison Consoles' Xdubber

http://www.harrisonconsoles.com/joomla/index.php?option=com_content&task...
   - Museresearch Receptor

     http://www.museresearch.com/receptor.php?r=why
   - Liontracks Mediastation X-76

     http://www.gearjunkies.com/product_info.php?products_id=12502
   - Hartmann Neuron Synthesizer

     http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hartmann_Neuron
   - Indamixx

   - Midas XL8

     http://www.midasconsoles.com/xl8.php
 * a professional institute that trains all kinds of future

studio/broadcast/live-sound engineers in the use of Ardour

   http://www.sae.edu/en-gb/content/80/Ardour_-_SAE_Edition
 * The Free Firewire Audio Drivers org (FFADO.org)

   http://ffado.org/
 * the possibility that Linux support might not have much marketing

impact with professional devices (as opposed to consumer devices that

are more accessible to a wider range of developers)
Cheers,
Bryant
