I have today written up two blueprint specs for UDS-N, let's hope they 
get accepted:

1)
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/multimedia-platform-n-pro-audio-secured

Professional, low-latency audio, that's secure and just works

What do we need to bridge the gap between the Pro audio's need for 
reliably low latency, and Ubuntu's secure and just-works standard? E g: 
FFADO udev rules, jack and rtkit integration, adding memlock features to 
rtkit, make PA a jack client when jack starts, add a jack engine 
whenever a FW soundcard is plugged in, etc? Perhaps we can't or 
shouldn't do all of these for Natty, but having some of them would be nice.

2)
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/multimedia-platform-n-audio-apport-symptom

Improving audio apport symptom

Making "ubuntu-bug audio" symptom based - the user will be asked in more 
detail of the problem, and the apport symptom will analyse and submit 
the right logs. Perhaps also add Intel-HDA specific features?
