Default MQA alternative - open source

I, and some others, have concerns about the 'closed' nature of MQA and the
way it might give big companies a level of control over what makers and
users of hardware and music may do. So we have been considering the
possibility of an open and free alternative.

This has been discussed on the 'pink fish' forum and I've released a 'bit
freezer' program as a part of this for experiment purposes. If anyone is
interested I'd suggest looking at the relevant forum threads. But the basic
idea is to have a system that people may prefer and will cost less in terms
of money *and* in terms of limitation of your choice.
