OpenLibraries Reinvented By jah Published: June 19, 2008 PrintEmail
As we get ready for the next evolution of the OpenLibraries, version 0.5, which will be powering the next generation of Jahshaka products moving ahead we invite you to visit its new Trac based community oriented website.
The new site, http://www.openlibraries.org, takes the OpenLibraries in a direction that it should have gone down a long time ago. As a open platform that combines both the development wiki, source code browsing and ticketing systems, the new site gives developers better visability into the openlibraries project, its development direction and its architecture.
The Jahshaka Projects upcoming 3.0 Jahplayer and Jahshaka products rely extensively on the OpenLibraries to power their media management, playback, and content creation pipelines. Having a open, shared system in place for Jahshaka developers will greatly accelerate the development of our products.
In a world where the importance of media is rapidly rising to the forefront of technolgy, the importance of hardware accelerated, cross platform toolkits becomes a critical factor in developing next generation applications. As development of the OpenLibraries moves ahead, the new site will help the community to get more involved in the Open source philosophy that it was created with.
Development Partners The Openlibraries evolved out of the Jahshaka Project and is backed by two major development partners who are helping to accelerate the development of the OpenLibraries as a true, LGPL next generation toolkit. These are Silversoft Solutions and Audiotube.com
About the OpenLibraries The Openlibraries are a powerful, cross-platform set of C++ libraries that provide developers with key components for the development of rich media applications. The Openlibraries are the first of its kind and represent a crucial step forward in the development of open source tools for creating digital content. Its library modules can be used to develop applications for such things as editing, compositing, media players, encoders and image processing. http://www.openlibraries.org
