| The amount of funding, led by .406 Ventures, isn't disclosed, but is

| million Kaltura previously secured from Avalon Ventures and angel investors.
| Here's why this company's focus on allowing videographers around the world to
| collaborate is promising.

Just peachy: free software, free movies
,----[ Quote ]
| Although my artistic talent is probably in the low one percentile, after
| watching the movie I went to the Blender web site to see what was there, and
| was thrilled to see another open movie in the works: Peach. And it’s just
| getting geared up for production. Out of curiosity, I clicked on the link to
| pre-order the movie, and perhaps impulsively decided I wanted to support this
| new project.
