Hi, Tim, Anil, we are working on something here, I also believe Peter Dietz has 
something in the works. Our approach is to use the xmoovStream pseudo-streaming 
server [1], creating derivative Flash versions of already archived PDF files 
using pdf2swf [2], and the FlexPaper viewer [3]. We're still in the testing 
phases of this, but the solution will end up looking a lot like the approach 
Stuart Lewis suggested here: 
http://blog.stuartlewis.com/2009/05/27/easy-pseudo-video-streaming-for-dspace-repositories/
 (note that Stuart links to lots of other helpful resources throughout this 
posting, as do his commenters).

Since this approach dovetails with other streaming efforts (and that's what we 
have waiting in the wings, so that's why we're doing it this way), I'd love to 
work with anyone who's interested in coming up with a "standardized" XMLUI 
theme option for handling streaming files.
