Kamaelia
Kamaelia is a project that aims to allow the BBC and others to create and test open protocols for large scale streaming. Substantial subsystems include a core concurrency subsystem and the beginnings of an RTSP/RTP streaming server. Existing functionality includes a complete single threaded, coroutine-based concurrency framework (Axon), a generic TCP client and server framework that allows protocols to be trivially created, a number of example protocols, and an Ogg Vorbis decoding subsystem for client site testing (libvorbissimple).

Changes: Key highlights of this release are BitTorrent support, OpenGL support, massively enhanced DVB support, collaborative whiteboarding with audio and support for daisy-chaining whiteboards, a nascent seaside-style Web server, and enhanced visual system composition (i.e. the ability to compose arbitrary graphs). All of these include examples, including an OpenGL interface to BitTorrent, a BitTorrent-based simple (non-robust) streaming system, and a "record for me" scriptable PVR based on programme name.
