Development of pulseaudio is certainly a bit of a linux-focused affair. But we very much want other platforms to be included as well, as can be seen by the OSX, *BSD, Solaris and win32 support currently in the tree. > I am all for contacting them, for sure. > Just want to point out that the proposed patch would not be against the nature of > the ports, because it doesn't affect functionality, but addresses OS differences. There is already some FreeBSD specific code in PulseAudio upstream. Especially considering some changes required to make pulse run on freebsd and netbsd are quite similar, I think it makes sense to submit your patches. > -- > Andriy Gapon Maartenhome | help
