This last Thursday and Friday just before linux.conf.au 2007, Open Source Media developers meet in Sydney, to hack on the future of Open Media. FOMS had a diversity of participants ranging from low level audio driver hackers & codec researchers to tool developers & online open media project maintainers all of whom worked together to identify next steps for open media.
The developer meeting established Community Goals for the near and long term. Goals include improving low level open media infrastructure, a push for native ogg theora playback in the base firefox install & getting embed oggplay support into mediaWiki (the software which runs Wikipedia).
looks like a great working meeting. Looking forward to improved open media!
