    33There has been some confusion with regard to the versioning of Uniaud release candidates and supplementary modules. This page shall attempt to address those concerns.
    44
    5 == 1.1.x Branch ==
     5== 1.1.4 Trunk ==
    66
    77This is a the base Uniaud driver. The current level is 1.1.4 RC6, on the way to 1.1.4 GA (General Availability, or a "release" build). All other 1.1.4 builds have been alpha, beta, gamma, or release candidates, and as such, should be considered "under test" and not final quality.
    88
    9 == ALSA 1.0.x or HDA 1.0.x Builds ==
     9== 1.2.0 Branch ==
    1010
    11 These are experimental builds of uniaud32.sys based upon the requisite ALSA build. Paul Smedley has produced these, and they are available from his [http://download.smedly.info download page]. These will be labeled uniaud-hda-1.0.x.zip or uniaud-alsa-1.0.x.zip. [Need reference to the fine differences between "alsa" and "hda" in this context.]
     11These are "ALSA Resync" builds, in an attempt to gradually resynchronize and merge in code from ALSA versions 0.9.0-1.0.4. More information on these may be found on the [AlsaResync ALSA Resync] page.
    1212
    13 == 1.9.x Branch ==
     13== 2.0 Branch ==
    1414
    15 These are HDA supporting experimental builds of uniaud32.sys available from Paul Smedley's [http://download.smedly.info download page]. Ultimately, these will lead into Uniaud 2.0, hopefully with hardware support on par with the [http://www.alsa.com ALSA Project].
     15These are experimental builds of uniaud32.sys based upon newer ALSA versions and supporting HDA. Paul Smedley has produced these, and they are available from his [http://download.smedley.info download page]. These will be labeled uniaud32-hda-1.0.x.zip, uniaud32-alsa-1.0.x.zip, or uniaud32-1.9.x. Ultimately, these will lead into Uniaud 2.0, hopefully with hardware support on par with the [http://www.alsa.com ALSA Project].

     17To better understand the direction of Uniaud insofar as its synchronization with ALSA is concerned, please see our [PlanToRemoveAlsaCode plan to remove ALSA code], which outlines a strategy for making Uniaud more modular, easier to build, and more cooperative with newer ALSA versions as they become available.
