The initial DSS source code release compiled only on Mac OS X, but external developers quickly ported the code to Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, Tru64 Unix, Mac OS 9 and Windows.

The Marlin Project began when Alberto Victor de Mondonca rallied a group of Brazilian developers around the work of Alin Pilkington, a Santa Monica, Calif., developer.

Pilkington had received from an Apple engineer incomplete code for a Mac OS 9 implementation of Apple's (aapl) QuickTime Streaming Server (the company's server technology for streaming multimedia QuickTime files over the Internet). The engineer told Pilkington that the company was not interested in investing the time to get it up and running on the current Mac OS. Through developer mailing lists, de Mondonca heard of Pilkington's project and quickly organized developers he knew in his home town of Vitória, Brazil.
