*** Ecasound - List of Ecasound Development Items (edi-xxx)         ***

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[ Ecasound Development Items - (edi-x) codes ]

The Ecasound Development Item concept was used for keeping track of 
bugs, open issues, enhancement proposals, and other similar issues
for Ecasound develoment through years 2002-08. In September 2008,
all remaining items were transfered to the web based tracker
at sourceforge.net:

  - https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=4605&atid=104605

Each new EDI item is identified by a unique number. The resulting
tag '(edi-xxx)' is used as a reference in mailing list discussions, 
changelogs, etc. 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
[ Meta: Syntax ]

	   than a few lines.
