I already did that and in the fact of SEP it is nothing different from a
PSM or RFCOMM channel. Actually because of this I thought that a socket
based implementation is the best. Along time I prefered to keep AVDTP in
userspace. However the only difficult part is the discover, because if
you don't know the SEP you must use it to find the available ones and
this includes a L2CAP connection. I must see how this gets integrated in
a nice way.

There is no secret about it. Parts of the communication can be found in
the mailing list archive. The rest was not in public, but actually only
by accident.

What we had done was to fix the L2CAP and RFCOMM protocol layers and
extend the test programs to pass the qualification tests.

There was no contract and they didn't paid us.
