FreeBSD Multimedia API and Google SOC2006

[Mario Sergio Fujikawa Ferreira]

	I was wondering if someone could propose a
project for a basic multimedia API for FreeBSD.

	I mean, we do not have any standard interface
to access camera devices. Neither, for other "video capture" devices.
As a matter of fact, aside from OSS sound system, we do not have a
standard API. We have to directly communicate with whatever a
particular device provides.

	I am not proposing V4Linux but some sort of common
API abstraction. I do not have the necessary skills to mentor such
a project so I am looking for volunteers for the task.

	Regards,
