The XRDP work was never finished, so there's no XRDP support in
PulseAudio.

So you're volunteering to help with PulseAudio development? Great! Is
there anything particular that you'd be interested in improving (well,
at least XRDP support I guess)?

If you'd just prefer to start with some random simple tasks, I should be
able to come up with something. Perhaps it would be best if we'd have a
chat in IRC. My nick is "tanuk", the channel is #pulseaudio at
freenode.net. I won't be around the during the next weekend (Fri-Sun),
though, but today or next week would be fine.
