the problem is not that you want to fix them.
the problem is that many ppl before you did the same, but no one was in an
acceptable (not an ugly messy hack or a partial unfinished code) form.
instead of doing some search in teh archive, you just keep sending
Yet Another Ugly Hacks.

also, your idea with Yet Another Maillist was invented at least 5 times
before, search the mail list archives for the reasons against it.

you could save some time and thinking by just browsing the archive, or the
FAQ and copypaste the most frequent topics/patches here as your new idea...

on the zaurus, maybe.

as we aren't working on these issues, as there are much more important ones
before these. we will do it once, unless someone else does it earlier.

> ps: if I get it right my last af_intresample patch was another ignored patch.
it was not a cvs-ready patch. was it?
it had debug printfs and other mess, what we cannot accept.
anyway it's not refused (yet), it depends on Anders (libaf author).
probably the idea of having an optional integer-only resample will be kept.
your messy implementation probably won't. but it isn't my decision.

> Could you please tell me if it is so, than I won't send updates to it anymore.
just search the archive before re-invent something next time.
it saves time for both us and you.
