I think this is an outstanding idea and I support it.

One thing to keep in mind though is patents that require compensation.
I think mp3's (for example) still fall into that category.

We can't approve things in the SIG that will violate IP law in the USA.
 And please let's not start a discussion on the validity of those laws.
 I don't know anyone who thinks they are great or wants them to exist ..
but they do and we have that limitation.

But, outside of that limitation, I am 100% supportive of an Audio
Production SIG.

Thanks,
Johnny Hughes
