The remaining things to do are almost entirely non-technical:

  - Propose it for inclusion in 2.10 (on desktop-devel-list)
  - Have the long-winded discussion about how that's going to affect API/ABI
    issues with esound dependencies and so on
  - Convince everyone that it's a great idea
  - PROFIT!!! ;-)

It's in Ubuntu 4.10's universe repository, and will most likely be the
default in Ubuntu 5.4, replacing esound. This will probably happen whether
it's accepted into GNOME 2.10 or not, because we can just enable the esound
modules.

polypaudio should be in unstable by now, if not, I will check my sponsor.

Thanks,
