Hi,
We're experimenting with distributions of Kamaelia including all the key dependencies for all the examples, which we're dubbing Kamaelia Bundles. These have been updated for the following new releases: Kamaelia 0.4.0, Axon 1.5.0, vorbissimple 0.0.2. As a result the two files are: * KamaeliaBundle-1.2.0.tar.gz * KamaeliaMegaBundle-1.2.0.tar.gz (same as above but also includes libvorbis, libogg and libao) Installation instructions here: * http://kamaelia.sourceforge.net/GettingStarted.html This consolidates the last 6 months work on optimisation work aimed at being able to grab & transcode Digital TV broadcasts in realtime. This means there's been a large number of positive knockons, and also include a number of new and useful examples/tools: * Collaborative/Shared/Networked whiteboard (clients are servers as well) * Presentation Tool * A simple record & transcode PVR - which we're using as the back end for generating the data available here: http://bbc.kamaelia.org/cgi-bin/blog/blog.cgi We've also now got lots of documentation on the website: * http://kamaelia.sourceforge.net/Introduction.html * http://kamaelia.sourceforge.net/Cookbook.html * http://kamaelia.sourceforge.net/Components.html Full Release notes: * http://kamaelia.sourceforge.net/Kamaelia-0.4.0-ReleaseNotes.html * http://kamaelia.sourceforge.net/Axon-1.5.0-ReleaseNotes.html Downloads: * KamaeliaBundle-1.2.0.tar.gz http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=122494&package_id=183773&release_id=427118 * KamaeliaMegaBundle-1.2.0.tar.gz http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=122494&package_id=183774&release_id=427119 License: * This is an aggregate tar ball, so each file in the distribution is covered by its own license. (ie this is mere aggregation) As an indication of the performance, it's fairly trivial to write a programme to take a Digital TV channel (~5Mbit/s of data rate) and locally remulticast it. Since you can then use a laptop with wireless as a portable TV, it's nicer to use instead of an analogue TV sender from the local supermarket :) (Obviously whether you can do this really depends on your local copyright laws, but it's a nice indication of performance) Oh, also, apparently this month's Linux Magazin in Germany has a short article on Kamaelia. I can't read it, but the cat comes out well :) Have fun, Michael. -- Michael Sparks, Senior Research Engineer, BBC Research, Technology Group [EMAIL PROTECTED], Kamaelia Project Lead, http://kamaelia.sf.net/ This message (and any attachments) may contain personal views which are not the views of the BBC unless specifically stated. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-announce-list Support the Python Software Foundation: http://www.python.org/psf/donations.html
