as far as I know, we currently have no plans for adding encoding abilities 
into libshout.  It's actually quite a bit of work to do, however I would 
love for someone to take this one on.  Libshout is quite useful, but it's 
usefulness falls a bit short for many source clients that need to 
reencode.  Factoring out this (encoding) into a library like libshout makes 
the development of a source client a trivial task if you ask me.

Here are some requirements that I would want :

- support for the following encoding types
         Vorbis : via libogg/libvorbis
         Speex : via libspeex
         AAC : via libfaac
         MP3 : via libmp3lame
- win32 AND linux support (this is a must)
- conditional inclusion of all the encoding types
- resampling logic as well as stereo->mono mono->stereo conversion
- thread-safe so it can be used by the same application to handle multiple 
types of numbers of encoders.

any takers ?
