[Audio-engine-dev] OpenJDK: Sound API Contribution

I don't know where Java Sound development should start, but there
are a lot of areas that deserve attention. I wouldn't say that a
new audio engine is the most important right now. I have a long
list for new features, some of them are already implemented in
Tritonus (see footer). I am not aware of any pressing bugs in the
JDK, but there are shortcomings of the current implementation
that could be considered bugs. A middle layer for digital audio
handling, and a high level "player" (similar to applet.AudioClip)
would be great additions.

And one thing that's really harmful to Java is the bad state of
Java Sound on Mac. Getting a CoreAudio and CoreMIDI
implementation into the Mac JDK would be wonderful.

Regards,
Florian
