First off, big thanks for the response.
Ok, totally helpful - not on the roadmap, and for reasons that I can not only support but embrace. I always assume that you guys have good decision-making, when you outline it I (nearly) always get it. I can get down with this. Again, much appreciate the transparency - it ain’t gonna happen.
I shall try to start reading @Aaron_Turner 's magnum opus thread on getting Roon working over OpenVPN because I have Unifi networks on both ends and pretty good internet connections at both. I was assuming it;d be better to have a core at both ends, but it seems like that’s probably not the direction I oughta be going. To work!
