Is an Open Source Online Video Platform Right for You?
,----[ Quote ]
| Can Kalturaâs open-source OVP really do
| everything that a closed-source provider can
| do? Unfortunately thatâs not in my realm of
| knowledge to answer. Can it do some things
| better than a closed-source can? Youâll
| likely get differing opinions from
| developers on that one. Does it really have
| an âeasyâ solution that makes it accessible
| to a larger audience of video publishers?
| Yes, but I would say it appears to be
| heavily towards one type of audience â those
| with IT resources available. It would be
| interesting to find out if anybody without
| programming experience could actually build
| an successful video experience using just
| limited version of the Kaltura video
| programâ and say it was âeasy.â

Better Coding Standards in JavaScript 5
,----[ Quote ]
| In general, these changes are for the
| greater good in terms of code compliance as
| well as cross-browser compatibility (my only
| bane is that most browsers are not strictly
| compliant in terms of W3C standards, but
| this might be resolved within the next 2000
| years.)
|
| At the end of the day stricter standards
| imply better coding and in turn powerful
| code that does not break. The additions of a
| standard JSON parsing mechanism and strict
| mode will be of great benefit to developers,
| with the potential to translate into smaller
| libraries for Prototype and other extension
| libraries required. On the whole, JavaScript
| 5 seems to be moving forward where
| JavaScript 4 failed to even get moving, let
| alone take off. Let's hope that in the
| future these things become an ally to
| developers rather than yet another setback
| in the struggle for ultimate browser
| compatibility and perfect coding technique.

Obama Team Challenges Web Developers

Should the White House Contribute to the Open Source Community?
,----[ Quote ]
| While this measure may not be an immediate
| cost-saver (5 different companies are
| involved in re-building and maintaining the
| White House web site), long-term costs
| should fall as government agencies are able
| to borrow from the greater Drupal community
| while incrementally improving on the
| websites code. But the question remains,
| will the Obama White House share some of the
| contributions itâs making to open source?
