Hi,

I've only recently noticed (I've been snooping around for the past year or so, sorry :) that there's no planned multimedia (i.e.: audio, video) framework for Etoile. Has this been discussed or generally agreed upon? Is there any interest in using gsnd (the GNUstep sound daemon) in Etoile? Is there any interest in implementing an open form of Apple's CoreAudio? (is that even legal?) Has anyone even given any thought to moving to a more robust audio API than NSSound?

If I could be pointed at a target API, I wouldn't mind writing Objective-C bindings to gstreamer-0.10 (which I'm decently familiar with) and implementing the desired API. (In fact, I took a glance at Apple's CoreAudio documentation, and it's an API to create one-way graphs of source/sink/filter nodes--which is exactly what gstreamer is.)

What are your thoughts?

Joe Luquette
