	Thanks, i have made some research yesterday. Having the Voice Over IP 
working with speex on mac is definetely possible, there is a closed 
source software who use it : TeamSpeex (http://www.savvy.nl/blog/).
	Well closed source doesn't help me a lot so I check open source 
software who have input audio, there is the well know Audacity software 
(http://audacity.sourceforge.net/). I dig a little into their source 
and I found in the file AudioIO.cpp that they use the PortAudio library 
(http://www.portaudio.com) a cross platform, open-source, audio I/O 
library. The code is quite clean but mixed with a lot of their stuff 
and looks complexe to me (remember I am not a C++ programmer, usually I 
code in obj-c for hobby and cobol or java for job).
	I dig too in Apple documentation of their CoreAudio APIs, not a very 
usefull doc as far as I can say, but well I have some example of code 
which might be used.
	Another possibility is to use the MTCoreAudio framework (non usual 
licence but looks compatible with GPL), well it's an obj-c framework so 
maybe it's not possible or wanted to incorpore it but it encapsulate 
one of the CoreAudio API (C++ here mainly) and can be used as a good 
source of inspiration.


	That's where I am, another thing to keep in ming is that I don't have 
access to Apple last OS version (10.4 say Tiger) only to 10.3 and 10.2. 
So I can't guarantee anything on Tiger compatibility.

	Am I the only one Mac user here ? 'Cause if someone else knowing to 
code in C++ want to do the job it would far more better.
