I am the Google Summer of Code mentor for Alexandre's project. I
would like Alexandre's work to target libdmapsharing so that any GNOME
application may use his DACP functionality. Rhythmbox does not yet use
libdmapsharing for its DAAP implementation. I have submitted a patch
[1] that changes this. I have since been working with Jonathan Matthew
to refine the patch.

The patch is starting to get mature and I would appreciate feedback from
anyone who is willing to test it. The Bugzilla entry contains instructions
that describe what is needed to build Rhythmbox with the patch.
