Would someone port the updated 227 OpenAL to UT

The OpenAL driver in 227f includes the original reverb from Unreal, while the UT one is still lacking it. All past audio updates have applied to both Unreal and UT, so I was wondering if this could be released as a separate package.

How much work would it take to convert the driver over?

its not that much, I know I need to update it. While 227f does not match the original reverb exactly and newer versions doesn't also.
But it has a lot of improvements for reverb instead and supports EFX effects and an effect library.
Fmod however matches the old reverb model exactly.

Not IMO. It seems to be too silent and fast.
Compare Unreal 200 (galaxy) with 227g (fmod) in Spirevillage.

then go and compare Unreal > 224 first...its impossible to guess what the first (technical) implementation of reverb was in 200 and usually we are not talking about 200 to compare with.
