The streaming server was recently moved under the umbrella of GStreamer, so is now known as the "GStreamer Streaming Server". It's still referred to the Entropy Wave Streaming Server in a bunch of places. We have no plans to continue EWSS as a separate entity; all development is done upstream now.
GSS consists of two parts, a library that handles all the server, streaming, and configuration details, and an appliction that you can actually install and run on a Linux machine. The library part is significantly farther along, and is used as the basis of all of Entropy Wave's hardware products. The standalone application side of GSS is less well developed: the configuration system is rudimentary, and it's difficult to discover how to add streams, for example. GSS is my primary open source project at the moment, and is as actively developed as I have time. The near-term goal is to get the app side working to the state that you could install a Fedora or Debian package and get a simple livestream or ustream style web app. The primary goal of GSS is to support live HTML5 video, with secondary goals being to support RTMP and RTSP (both work currently), and also video-on-demand (works, but is a hack). There is some preliminary work for supporting WebSockets and WebRTC, as well as more simple versions of JS pushing. The goal here is to seamlessly support "rich" media for HTML5 as you get in Flash streaming servers.
