I think some of you might remember me from last year. My name is João Paulo and I made the PulseAudio plugin for bluetooth audio under the GSoC08 program. I'm glad of have been accepted for this year's SoC and would like to thank all of you for trusting on my work on more time. This year I'm going to implement the sink role on bluetoothd, what means to be able to receive an audio stream from a device or another pc (this sink / source name convention can be very confusing sometimes). It's also part of the project to implement some clients so we can provide the working feature to end users and also test the implementation. I plan to start with PulseAudio and alsa clients, but would be good to have a gstreamer client too, as a matter of completion. I'm going to be mentored by Vudentz, like last year. Right now I'm re-reading the specs related to the project and also having a look over a book Vudentz have recomended me [1]. I just moved to a new house and still without internet connection, so I'm not very online lately (hope to solve this issue ASAP), but as soon as I have a connection I'll be hanging on #bluez. My nick on freenode is jprvita and I'm on GMT-3. Besides that you can contact me through email or jabber on jprvita@gmail.com. I'll be posting status updates to this list and will write about the project on my weblog [2] too. By now I've published the proposal there, if someone is interested.
