BTW, are you the lead in porting mythtv (the frontend) to OS X?

Nigel Pearson and I are basically the co-leads. Nigel did a lot of the initial work getting Myth to compile (building on Gregorio Gervasio's work, I think), wrote the initial video output routines for OS X, and tackled the processor-endianness issues. I contributed the audio code and the current QuickTime-based video routines. We've collaborated on most of the other Mac-friendly functions, like the initial GUI for MySQL settings (instead of having to edit a text file) and changing the directory assumptions to allow self-contained Mac binaries.


Nowadays I work on cleaning up the code and making it faster on Macs; I have a 450 MHz Cube that is occasionally fast enough to be a frontend, depending on the state of CVS.
