Also, since there's no mixer library, each mixer program has its own DIY implementation. The delievarables will be: - mixer(3): a library that will serve as the API for handling the OSS mixer. Existing mixer programs can make use of the library and extend their functionality, as well as simplify their code bases. - mixer(8): a complete rewrite and improvement of the existing mixer(8) utility. It'll use mixer(3) and its new features, and will provide a unified and easy way for the user to manipulate the mixer, so sysctl(8) tweaking will not be needed. So far I've done the following: - Started working on mixer(3) and implemented all the functionality of mixer(8). - Added the option to change the default audio card without having to use sysctl(8). - Rewrote mixer(8) to work with mixer(3). It currently has the same behavior as the existing mixer(8), but uses mixer(3).

The plan is to implement at least V4 of the Filesystem using Rust and the fuse crate . This is what I've done so far: 1. Bind to the FUSE interface. 2. Read the superblock. 3. Read the root inode. 4. Interpret Short Form directories. This allowed me to mount and read the root directory and its contents. You can view the work done so far here . Excited to be working with you. -Khaled
