yo, those are just a few reasons why the makers of Elephants Dream may didn't want to go for FOSS for the sound part. i hope it's only a question of waiting some years, until the audio world gets to similar level as blender reached in the 3d world.

Hmm, one more reason: elephant's dream was a blender project. some of the grant money went into core development of blender itself to adjust it to production features. one of the goals of the film was, to see whether blender would pass the "ready for a real film" exam. blender people just did not have the budget (and goal) to develop on the sound side, too. btw, blender forum has about 30.000 registered users. pd maybe 1000-3000??? marius.
