Dane Scott of TuneTracker Systems (and of course LeBuzz and BeOSRadio fame) is looking for a coder who can develop a driver which will allow BeOS/Haiku/ZETA to communicate with two-port serial adapter cards (this is needed since most of the modern motherboards have one serial port only, if at all). This would allow TuneTracker to simultaneously control multiple external devices. For example, the user would be able to control both the touchscreen and the audio switcher hardware, giving him/her the hability to control their entire TT system via the touchscreen interface, thus improving not only the ease of use of the system, but also increasing productivity.

Dane also told me that the driver, once it's completed, will be donated by Dane to the community, allowing BeOS and Haiku to use it in the future, as they please. Another (big) plus is that, the extra revenue which TuneTracker Systems will earn from this, will allow them to help develop new drivers for audio hardware, which in turn will also be donated back to the community, this being a "motto" for TT Systems, that all drivers of public interest will, after being developed, be donated back to the community. And of course, the developer will be paid for his work. So as you can see, this is basically a win-win situation for everyone involved. So if you're up to it and interested, drop Dane a line at "dane AT tunetrackersystems DOT com".
