everything can be realized, it's just a matter of time and money :)
to be serious: Currently I'm reading the RealAudio docs; there's still a lot
to read, but I think that this software has more useful features than I
originally expected.

well, from a technician's point of view, it doesn't matter if the user input
comes from a button or from http protocol data (if it is made available).
The only thing that hast to provided (from someone who cares) is some kind
of "translation table": which action leads to what ?

well, personally I maintain two positions regarding this project: the position
of a technician and the position of a rather conservative audience. from the
first one I'd like to say that I don't see any problems in realizing this
"sound library" (I don't know how to implement this yet, but I'll figure
it out).
