There is no timeline. Every now and then in the past people staretd to work on porting PA to MacOSX but unfortunately nobody really pushed all the way through with with this. Some patches have been merged that allowed PA to compile on MacOS at those times. But there never was an output module so it probably was not useful for much. > (which crash my router)?

If you use PA's raop support it will allow PA to contact an Airport and make its audio device available for local clients. PA in this way acts as iTunes compatible client. The other way round, i.e. making PA act as Airport audio device cannot be implemented right now, since Apple is an evil company and uses cryptography to dongle iTunes and the Airport together and only one of the two cryptographic keys have been recovered. > Anyone have suggestions?
