Hi Bruce, I'm a little late to the party, but was wondering what your 
thoughts are on the whole OSS thing. It seems we should be as consistent 
as possible in our various Yocto Linux kernel images. Do we want to 
support OSS? I recall several years ago that OSS had drivers that Alsa 
did not and was needed for some boards - is that still the case? My 
feeling is, if possible, I'd like to just have alsa in our kernels and 
help reduce the raging redundancy in the audio API space.
