Look, kloczek, how less problems we cold have by banishing all the technology and going back to stone age?
The complexity is sometimes unavoidable if one tries to please as many as possible. But why not userspace library that simplifies access to ALSA for those who don't need all the ,,complexity''? That pleases both -- those who need feauters, and those who only need to pass something to speakers. Maybe there are cards that work with OSS and not with ALSA, and that may be the reason to keep it just for some time. But in the long run I don't think there is a need to have two sound systems in kernel just because one is complicated and other lacks some features.
