[speex-dev] fixed point conversion volunteer (OMG what am I doing?)

[B. Mitchell Loebel]

Hello Mark:

Count me in. I'm an excellent C programmer and I've done assembly 
coding. Although I've not done float to int conversions, I'll pick it 
up quickly ... send me an example, please.

Also, I direct The Tech Startup Connection here in Silicon Valley, so 
I have a very large resource pool. Check out 
<http://www.techstartupconnection.org>www.techstartupconnection.org.

<p>>I'm willing to contribute some time to converting speex to fixed point.

>I haven't known about speex for very long (very cool project -- much

>Also, if anyone has a preference for common code or fork. Which and why?

>PS.  I have 8 years experience optimizing C (as well as C++ & other) code.
> Some of that experience is on fixed point DSP processors.
