I feel like arguing with a bot. You claim: FreeBSD's implementation of OSS is missing a few features that hamstring the development on FreeBSD. I ask: What are those features exactly? Why can't they be implemented in FreeBSD's sound stack? --HPS > This is exactly what I am talking about. > FreeBSD OSS implementation is better, let's update it: > https://wiki.freebsd.org/RyanBeasley > That was created in 2008 and never touched a day after, why? > > Hey guys why don't you use oss in base, because our oss is better and we > make it match our kernel. > Okay great, can we update it, nope we don't have the manpower to do that. > > Did "RyanBeasley (last edited 2008-06-17 21:37:27 by localhost)" > ever come back and did any work other than create a wiki page? > > So, when will FreeBSD OSS fork get in sync with what's available online > right now? > What's with the circular logic here? >
