Jan, I would actually like to maintain the source via my own git tree. And I would gladly accept your patches against that tree. Since the workshop, I have been busy "Open Sourcing" the project my self. I now have a git repository, which also contains the collector daemon, web-code and database layout. The git tree also contains some README documentation. It for example contains a description of howto setup a testlab with MPEG2 streaming via VLC and controlled packet drops via tc-netem, so you can perform your runtime tests. I didn't plan to release the project just yet, as I wanted to do some renaming. E.g I want to rename the mp2t module to mpeg2ts, and I want to rename the collector daemon from tvprobe to iptv-analyzer. The git tree is temporarily located on people.netfilter.org: git://people.netfilter.org/hawk/iptv-analyzer.git I have bought the domain iptv-analyzer.org, but I have not installed any servers on that domain, yet. Solvik Blum (Cc.ed), is currently helping me out with the web-frontend. Cheers, Jesper Brouer -- ------------------------------------------------------------------- MSc.
