<h2>4Front Technologies OSS v4 API</h2>

<p>4Front Technologies will go live with an improved OSS API in the near future
and we are discussing syncing with this API at the freebsd-multimedia mailing
list. 4Front Technologies offered assistance. A volunteer would have
to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Add the necessary interfaces.</li>
<li>Add appropriate code to the sound subsystem/drivers where possible.</li>
<li>Document the work (manual pages, maybe sound subsystem chapter in the
FreeBSD Architecture Handbook, maybe extending the example driver). This
part overlaps with the sound subsystem documentation project. Maybe
4Front is willing to donate parts of their documentation. Coordination
regarding this is required.</li>
<li>Use the improved API in our userland programs where it is
beneficial.</li>
</ul>

<li>Ability to read and understand foreign C code.</li>
