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 n= ature of > the ports, because it doesn't affect functionality, but addresses OS diff= erences. 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 Maarten
