This debate makes me laugh;
It was started when the head of ITNs' new media dept. announced the
release of an applet that circumvents the BBCs' attempts at DRM, and
has turned into an attack on the BBCs' reluctance to share its'
copyrighted material.
I've had a mooch around the ITN site and they don't seem to be
making any of their content freely available ? If thisn't the case,
then could somebody publish a link that we could play with.
The BBC are pioneering a broadcasting paradigm with Backstage - no
other broadcaster is actively encouraging developers to re-purpose
their information, you should give them a break.
Graeme..
I think you have the wrong end of at least *my* particular stick...
and Eeyore has a lot of those.... ;-)
N.B.. Just managed to edit this bit in time after reading Tom's message..
My comment related purely to a post (now proved to be 'fake') with a
.bbc.co.uk e-Mail address that, as previously suggested, did nothing
to answer Ave's perfectly genuine question.
I was most certainly *not* attacking that person's employer, assumed
from the address to be the BBC, in any shape or form, and especially
not for this excellent initiative.
