I like the idea of creating a DAW specific Darwin profile. That's a great idea, as long as the portage versions of the various apps build properly. The biggest problem I have encountered is that OSX uses older version of GTK+ and automake than many of the portage ebuilds require so the only way to build some of the apps, like JAMin, is to build from CVS. I don't think I know enough to be a Gentoo Dev, otherwise I'd be glad to jump in. I'm in no huge rush to get going, so let's see what comes out of the woodwork in the next 2 weeks.

My plan was to create a new default-darwin profile just for DAWs, or maybe even a more generic default-daw/ profile that could be ARCH/USERLAND agnostic, like a more portable CCRMA, but gentooified. A gui installer could be cool. Anyway, I'm glad you are interested in this, I would love to have another OS X dev on board who has some common goals... ever consider becoming a Gentoo Dev? ;) I'm fairly inactive for about another 2 weeks, but after that we should talk more.
