It's not a large number of users but it's a very high

quality user group. I think it's actually an

incredible accomplishment and love being part of it.

I've learned alot from Linux Audio people.

I know of several other pro audio users.
All my commercial audio work is done using Ardour and

JAMin. At the moment I've got three start to finish

full albums, two mix and master albums and two albums

for mastering in progress. I've got several four to

six song demos in progress. I've probably produced

start to finish two full albums,  a half dozen start

to finish demos and mastered a bunch of stuff. 
Within a week or two I expect another MPLS, MN Ardour

user and I to begin equiping a truck for remote pro

audio work and it will be a Linux Audio operation.

IMO, the number and quality of users and developers is

obviously big enough to qualify Linux Audio as an up

and coming contender. Someone else mentioned seeing

new users on the list almost daily. I've noticed the

same thing. We can keep doing exactly what we have

been doing and in due time we will have and be

everything we want.
These are great times for us and unless I am being

unrealistic I couldn't be happier.
