Hi Maarten,
To answer your question about upstreaming the "meego modules" or
part of them, I can only say that we had a plan to upstream the
applicable parts. However, now with this new Nokia strategy it
is very hard to predict what is the future of those modules.
The biggest reason why we can not just do it now is how product
specific the code currently is. The driving force have been developing
for a specific product and not so much trying to make a generic
implementations. On the other hand with Intel/Meego cooperation we were
starting to take the steps to the right direction.
Anyway, in this new situation we just plan to upstream everything
that is generic enough. For product specific modules we plan to
open source as much as possible in the out of source tree
compiled modules [1].
Best regards,

[1] The source code for the pulseaudio modules mentioned can be found here:
http://meego.gitorious.org/maemo-multimedia/pulseaudio-modules-meego
The heavily patched pulseaudio tree we are using can be found here:
http://meego.gitorious.org/maemo-multimedia/pulseaudio
Almost all the patches are now part of the pulseaudio upstream.
ps. The above repositories are currently not up to date, but we'll
update them soon gain.
