The X audio system, version .007

The X Audio System provides platform independent, device indpendent, network
transparent audio services. Or at least it will, when the implementation is 
complete. (Implementation was stopped in August '96, after it was announced 
that the Consortium was closing.)

The X Audio System is a great idea though, so the Consortium decided to make 
the specifications and partial implementation available, in hopes that others
will finish it.

So, Here's you chance to win fame and glory. There's work to be done and
fortunes to be had.

The source and documentation is available in a tar file in this directory.
You can learn more about the Xaudio System by reading the html presentation in
the xtech96 subdirectory.
