News on BBC Nitro, just posted on the Internet Blog:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/internet/entries/bc82562e-ea9d-4655-982d-e6219b2c877b

Some hope, perhaps:

"Access to Nitro is provided via an API key. This determines the quota
(number of requests allowed in a given time interval) that each
developer application can use. This is useful as it allows us to ensure
that no single application can overwhelm the system and prevent critical
clients from obtaining their data. It also provides us with a way to
profile individual client usage and where appropriate provide ways to
optimize their use of Nitro.

"To obtain a key to access Nitro it is necessary to register via the
Developer Portal.

"Currently access is limited to BBC teams but we are working on the
changes required to open this up to external non-commercial and hobbyist
users; this should be available later this year (a project known as
Nitro Public). In the meantime you can read more about Nitro and how it
works in the documentation section of the portal, as well as the terms
of use and Nitro Public Licence. I know we’ve said this before, so
please bear with us – we are working on it and will get it done
this year.

"Nitro is also available for business and commercial use through a
syndication agreement. Details of this can be found here."
