Score: 5.5/10 (Innovation: 4, Technical: 6, Documentation: 6, Utility: 6)

pw-whip is a C program that bridges PipeWire audio streams to WHIP-compatible servers, enabling Linux applications to stream audio over the standardized WHIP protocol. It is interesting because it fills a specific gap in streaming audio from PipeWire-based systems to WebRTC infrastructure, though it currently lacks video support and advanced features like ICE restart.
