Dans le droit fil de  "l'esprit Open source" 
(http://lnk.nu/article.gmane.org/8fm), voici le système de TV/IP 
"Democracy", bâti sur RSS, BitTorrent, au code 100% Open Source, qui 
nous promet la prochaine révolution démocratique des médias.

Bon, le player phare roule sous Windows (la démocratie est populiste, 
que voulez-vous:), mais il y a aussi une version Mac OS X et une version 
Linux alpha pour les développeurs. À quand un channel d'entraide FACIL 
enregistré pendant les ateliers ? :))
