Yann,
Unfortunately it appears that Apple does not provide a license for this type
of programming. I suggest that you do not do this project and that you do
not count on any open source project that provides a DAAP protocol as being
truly open source.
I'm sorry we can not help you more since it does sound like a cool project.
Hopefully Apple will work out a way to engage the OS community in the
future.
Please feel free to join us on other Cryptography projects. We can use all
the help we can get.

I'm sorry to say that there isn't any way to approach this that will result
in receiving Apple's blessing to do this.
The DAAP protocol isn't presently available for license from Apple, and we
aren't able to provide a legal release or license for 3rd parties to create
open or closed source implementations.
So, with regrets, there's no help or direction that I can provide.
Best regards,
Craig
