| Open source has come a long way in the past 
| few years, and great stories of open source's 
| success are abound.
| 
| For example, OpenMRS has been utilised in 
| Haiti, addressing the need to rethink medical 
| records. In the mobile industry âopenâ is a 
| common theme used to help combat a highly 
| tilted competitive landscape. And the desktop 
| space, although not champion, is still 
| brewing with a very large community of 
| enthusiastic users.

Escarpod to be integrated into Symbian^3 and Symbian^4 ?

,----[ Quote ]
| Escarpod, the third party Open Source podcast gatherer and player, 
| originally written for UIQ and available for S60 in beta form for a 
| while, is now the source of a Contribution Proposal to the main 
| Symbian Foundation code base. Effectively, this means that future
| Symbian devices should have a podcast client, in the wake of Nokia 
| choosing not to contribute their own proprietary Podcasting 
| application. Read on for links and more information.
