[Ardour-Dev] Website integration with Ardour interface

[Thomas Vecchione]

Personally I wouldn't be against it, so long as it doesn't actually connect
to the internet, or depend on it in any way.  It would be great to have it
be able to launch a web browser from those links, at least in my own
opinion, for whatever that is worth;)
