Sorry for the non-technically-based question but, couldn't OpenBSD
contribute its development to audio drivers to OSS so all operating
systems using it could benefit? And then OpenBSD could support just
OSS. That would make in-house work available to non-OpenBSD users.

Just an idea.

Greetings!

Does OSS even work on OpenBSD? There is an old version that supports OpenBSD 3.9 on their web-site. Is that package binary blob or the open source software? Would it even work on 4.2. I personally have great experience with OpenBSD audio drivers, their stability and supporting devices. I used OSS once in the past on FreeBSD and it took three different versions to get beyond bugs that affected my audio card.

I was wondering how much porting of OSS to OpenBSD would improve the support for unsupported devices? There is also the question of ALSA compatibility layer which is in my understanding slowly incorporated into OSS. Is it really important to have ALSA compatibility layer? Can somebody give me an example of the software which requires ALSA (please exclude Skype although there is OSS version)

Can somebody give an update on PJSIP and work that has been done on full duplex support for various audio drivers.

Thank You,
Predrag


P. S. Particular thanks to developers of audio drivers for their hard work.
