OSS Audio

[blubee blubeeme]

I'm looking at the information for audio/oss and it seems that the source
used is different than the 4frontversion.

-----

This port uses installation procedure that is very different from
the one used by 4Front and is not supported by them.

-----

The port also seems to lack a maintainer but a lot of work is being
committed by  jbeich at FreeBSD.org, mat at FreeBSD.org and a few others.

Why is this version of oss different than the 4front version?

I know in the past 4front went closed source but version 4.xx has been open
sourced again along with many improvements.

Is there any reason why this port can't or shouldn't move to the one
supported by 4front?
