On a un peu discut� de Darwin/OS X sur la liste, donc dans l'esprit
d'y porter des logiciels libres, qui serait d'accord de mettre �
disposition une telle machine via ssh ?

Exemple: mgetty

No, but I'd say it shouldn't be too hard.

If anyone can give me an "ssh" account to a Darwin/OS-X box I'd be willing
to give it a try.  It should be pretty straightforward:

 - unpack tar file
 - try compiling, fiddle with options and header files
 - try sending a fax (to see whether serial port stuff works)
 - try setting up mgetty (to see whether there are any surprises in
   login/utmp handling)

As mgetty+sendfax run fine on SunOS4 and {Free,Net,Open}BSD (and also on
NextStep :) ) I don't see any major gripes, but you need some experience
to get it going.

[If someone would be willing to donate a MacOS X machine to me, I'll
happily port mgetty+sendfax for him :-) - but I don't think that would be
appropriate for "just a few hours" having fun, uh, "porting work"]
