Hi all, sorry my messages came out of order.  I believe the order  
went 2-3-1.  I don't know if there is something wrong with my mac.com  
account, or the xiph list server, but I got several "message couldn't  
be delivered for..." warnings.  Anyway, I got all of the endian  
issues sorted out and have a codewarrior and xcode project if you are  
interested in adding a mac example alongside the speex download.  I  
also have a codewarrior project to create a speex bundle and make a  
CFM lib with glue code, to access it from carbon.  Codewarrior is a  
dead IDE, but several of us mac users still prefer prototyping in it  
vs. xcode.  I've never really contributed to an open source project  
so don't know how to go about it.  Thanx,
