Miro Turns 1.0

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the digital-restrictions-malcontents dept.

nicholasreville writes "We have just released version 1.0 of our internet video application Miro. Miro is a free and open-source (GPL) RSS aggregator and video player with BitTorrent support and a built-in guide of video feeds. It's created by the Participatory Culture Foundation, which is devoted to making online video more open and has received grants from Mozilla and Mitch Kapor, among others. In contrast to closed, proprietary delivery systems, Miro embraces open standards and DRM-free video. We build this software because we think it's absolutely crucial that internet video have an open technology foundation. We don't need more gatekeepers. Miro was featured previously on Slashdot."

    Oh yeah- I'm trolling. The fact that the current binaries they have at the site are for 0.9 didn't hide my evil intentions. And I have such a long history of trolling - that gave it away too. It's not the karma - I'm burning more with this post - it's that I'd like to know exactly who the idiot is who modded that a troll. I'd happily let all my mods be publicly listed, because I don't pull this kind of crap.

    Your first post in over a month - and that's it? Come on. You can do better.
     
    Railing against bad mods is a waste of time I guess - but right now I've got a little time to waste. As evidence, I offer up this reply to your snarky question.

    Don't worry about the bad mods. Better mods usually come along and fix things. You're at +3 interesting now for the original comment, and I would expect it to stay there. Do you moderate?

    When I get the opportunity. Mod points seem to come in bunches. I metamod too. And you are right. I should have just chilled out, but some days that's easier said than done.
