monome, mlr...

First of all, I would like to congratulate tehn for this fantastic controller called monome and also for this great application that mlr has proved to be. After saying this, I would like to underline the importance of the collective work that some members of this community are bringing out, specially those who are modifying and improving MLR.

After saying all this, I would like to make a proposal. It would be very interesting to create a collectivity -with tehn as the leader and leading guide- in charge of keeping and developing mlr because this one is, as far as I am concerned, the star application between all the possible ones. I do not pretend that anybody inverts more efforts than the ones already done (I am the first one who admits that I have not contributed at all in this community). I simply say that these individual efforts already done are guided in a collective manner. Something similar to the keeping and maintenance of the Linux's core.

On the other hand, I would to underline that, from my point of view, one of the virtues of mlr is the minimalist conception which characterizes it. This should be kept, I mean, not to include newer or more complex funcionalities like correcting and improving the existing ones.

For instance, pre-roll of Aesoteric seem to me a very good function (very cool stuff, man!), enough to be included in the following official version of mlr (v3.0). Nothing else.

the ChucK version will play nice with linux too.
