Any chance you could stop that BK megachangeset and instead do one changeset
per cvs commit?

I'll do more frequent syncing with the kernel tree in the future (I assume 
per week), but creating changesets per CVS commit is too overkill from the 
maintaince view. Everybody interested in ALSA development might watch 
our CVSLOG mailing list (archived) or use our CVS.
