[Openal-devel] Doppler Velocity

[Jason Daly]

I hate to bring up yet another issue, but does the new Doppler Velocity 
spec rub anyone else the wrong way?  To me, it seems very 
counter-intuitive (a scale factor for 343.3).  Typically, you would use 
this value to establish the units of the coordinate system you're using, 
right?  If you're using meters, then 343.3 m/s is a good value.  If 
you're using feet, then you would want 1128 for the Doppler Velocity.  
Calling alDopplerVelocity(1128) makes more sense to me than 
alDopplerVelocity(3.28), because 1128 ft/s is actually a velocity, and 
3.28 is not.  Would it not make more sense to stay with a quantitative 
value, and just specify that the default is changing?
