Matthew,

I'm not picking on you, but as someone standing on the outside looking in, 
Adam seems to be making structured, reasoned arguments. From my perspective, 
he appears to be speaking for my interests. I think the Desktop team might be 
rather surprised how many people do use line-in and would like a mixer 
installed by default that allows input switching. I've bit my tongue a couple 
of times whilst reading some of the mixer 'discussion' on the list. It seems 
to me that most of the people posting with a redhat.com address don't seem to 
have much of an idea what users (not developers) actually do use a mixer for. 
ie. not just increasing/decreasing volume levels. And for the record, I'm a 
fan of Pulseaudio!

Regards
