HTML5 Audio Sandbox

===================

This project is a small tool in which I experiment with audio streaming

alternatives. The goal is to have the same audio-content sent/streamed to

multiple targets.

The overall design is to have a single data "generator" where optional

"consumers" can hook to. After a consumer hooked itself into the generator,

the generator will start providing data to this consumer.

This is a rewrite of an initial, promising attempt. The main problems I had in

the initial attempt were the following:

* When a web-request came in, for some reasons, two consumers were added. The

  source of this is still unknown.

* I had no means to detect when a consumer has gone away. Especially in the

  case of a web client. One idea is to make the web-client send heartbeats to

  the server. If no heartbeat has been recieved in a set amount of time, the

  consumer will be disconnected.

Thinks that I will *not* (yet) tackle are:

* transcoding

* file management (initially I'll take files as application parameters)

* Audio metadata

* any form of visual design
