Hi, 

great! Let's get this done, finally.

I'll look at LMMS again. That's one great app I'd really like to see in
portage. Recently got removed from sunrise in favor of our's, but some
things have to be checked and cleaned up, like VeSTige license (their
reverse-engeneered VST header - LGPL'ed) and it's functionality on
amd64. And this build-system-mess called STK.

And the quizz... Is genstef still active? He was/is my mentor (for over
a year *shame*).


Cheers,
Tom
