ohloh have just introduced a new concept of open source software "stacks" which are collections of your favorite free libre open software grouped into functional collections for example for "desktop", "server", "PBX" etc.

You should be able to see the stacks I've created FSSE (server), OSDE (desktop) , VOIP & VIZZ (virtualisation)
@ http://www.ohloh.net/accounts/3283/stacks ! or read more @ http://www.ohloh.net/wiki/stack_faq

What's in your favorite ohloh "stack" ?

For various reasons I've finally moved my other weblogs/websites to MEMSET but if you're interested where they were in the past have a look at the great statistics provided by Netcraft !

Free and open-source, because open media matters.

YES, MR BBC, OPEN SOURCE DOES MATTER !

(Now is the time to Throw Away Your TV and stop paying BBC & MS £120/year)

Now there are three open source directories that you can contribute to

• swik
• osalt
• ohloh

ohloh has three particularly interesting features

• a related tag(s) auto suggestion that has to seen/used to be believed
  
• show the world your open source stack
  
• ohloh javascript badges !
  

Because Debian 4.0 isn't perfect (yet) there is still a place for Ed/X/Ubuntu !

Imperfections :

• text based installer only optional (ideal for low spec machines like xubuntu-alt)
  
• my third install (in 48 hours) has failed with a big red screen because it couldn't "autodetect" a printer
• using aptitude to uninstall either fast-user-switch or gdm insists on uninstalling the entire gnome desktop and most gnome apps !
• vmware mouse doesn't leave debian guest window unless you are running vmware-toolbox
  

Debian has huge potential with over 18,000 packages on its 3 DVDs (basic install only uses ~800) and there is some great documentation out there :

• http://wiki.debian.org/
• http://www.debianadmin.com/

and with everyones help we could make Debian No 1 again !

VLC is an open-source and cross-platform multimedia player for various audio and video formats (MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, DivX, mp3, Ogg, etc.) as well as DVDs, VCDs, CD audio, and various streaming protocols.

VLC is also a streaming server with transcoding capabilities (UDP unicast and multicast, HTTP, etc.) mainly designed for high-bandwidth networks.
