Yes, that's a good point.
Also from the user side, we have so many common needs and overlapping

interests, I'm convinced we can all work toward a unified audio/video kernel

config (or set of configs) and provide builds for different architectures

and distros.
This would simplify a lot things, and combine indeed our too many local and

isolated efforts.
