Thank you. Just to be clear about one thing: nobody buys a license for Ardour, it is released under the GPL.

You can choose to pay us for the service of building it for you, or if you like, providing a ready-to-run version that we can actually support. That revenue allows myself and other Ardour contributors to work on Ardour as a way of making a living.

Thanks also, I had the privilege to exchange with you on the linux-audio-dev mailing list a few times way back in the time of quasimodo and creation of LADSPA, I learned so much thanks to your dedication and knowledge about audio programming and how to create an useful api !
