GNU MediaGoblin 0.5.0 "Goblin Force" Released

Posted by timothy on from the livin'-on-a-prayer-halfway-there dept.

paroneayea writes "MediaGoblin 0.5.0 Goblin Force is released with a slew of new features: authentication plugins including OpenID and Mozilla Persona support, a new notification system, a new "reprocessing framework", and more! The project is also making progress towards its long-awaited federation goals via the Pump API, as used in pump.io. Rockin'!" (If the name doesn't ring a bell, Wikipedia helps: MediaGoblin is "a free, decentralized Web platform (server software) for hosting and sharing digital media.")

    Lets bundle all the unpopular GNU products together to make one really unpopular one and try to make it sound like the greatest thing sense sliced bread.

    If something is so important that you feel the need to post it on the internet... It probably isn't that important.
  2. OpenID by brianerst · · Score: 3, Informative

    Ironically OpenID support is announced the same day that myOpenID announces it's shutting down.

    (Yeah, I know, OpenID is all over these days, but it's still funny/sad.)

      Aren't we confusing OpenID witn MyOpenID ? It seems OpenID is live and kicking.
