I guess you've seen Jonathan's mail. I suggest you talk to him directly.

In the past, the project has asked for a test device, some kind of
device specification (read: papers) and a contact in case of questions.

There have also been NDAs, i.e. with TCAT, to support their widely used
DICE platform.

To my knowledge, this boils down to the on-wire ISO format plus all the
management stuff (like device initialization, how to address the mixer).

If provided, supporting it should be possible, but Jonathan will tell
you more precisely about this. ;)


If you like, switch to the ffado-devel mailinglist, however, writing to
Jonathan directly is probably the best to get things done.


I really appreciate your help, having M-Audio actively supporting Linux
is good news.


Cheerio
