I think the answer becomes: are you planning on adding support?

My question: if I were thinking about adding support, who would like  
to assist me in getting my feet wet. I have a powerbook with leopard  
and xcode. I have basic programming concepts. I just really don't know  
where to start. I was thinking about getting the eyetv USB capture  
device though, and playing with it a bit.
