developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.

PortAudio is a free, cross platform, open-source, audio I/O library. It
lets you write simple audio programs in 'C' that will compile and run on
many platforms including Windows, Macintosh (8,9,X), Unix (OSS), SGI, and
BeOS. PortAudio is intended to promote the exchange of audio synthesis
software between developers on different platforms, and was recently
selected as the audio component of a larger PortMusic project that includes
MIDI and sound file support.
PortAudio provides a very simple API for recording and/or playing sound
using a simple callback function. Example programs are included that
synthesize sine waves and pink noise, perform fuzz distortion on a guitar,
list available audio devices, etc.
