H.263 encoder/decoder is ready for beta test. This code has been integrated
into the video tool (vic). You can download
a binary distribution
of this software and test it.
Please send feedback to the Open Mash users and developers list.

The Internet2 Applications Development
group has agreed to take-over
operation of the Open Mash website. The consortium web server,
CVS repository, and other data will be migrating to their location
sometime during the fall 2003.
For further information contact Bob Riddle at Internet2 or Larry Rowe
at Berkeley.

The Mac OS X port is now complete with support for native audio and
video capture. Video capture is only known to work with FireWire
webcams, specifically those that use the IOXperts driver. You will need XFree86
and OroborOSX
is recommended.
You can build from CVS with the Mac OS X
Developer Tools which came with your copy of Mac OS X. Follow the
instructions for compiling on UNIX. You may also download binaries
(Jaguar) if you don't want to build from source. These binaries were
built from CVS on October 20, 2002. Update: binaries
for 10.1.5.

The three grants submitted to NSF to continue the Open Mash Consortium
were rejected. Consequently, the project will be significantly scaled back.
The immediate effect is that Lloyd Lim, the Project Manager and Chief
Programmer, must be layed off. Lloyd will wrap-up projects he is currently
working on before leaving September 1st. He has volunteered to continue some
of the administrative project management tasks (e.g., maintaining the
mailing lists and source forge site) for a couple of months. He will also
produce one more release that incorporates all the code we have been working
on in the past 6 months.
You can read the proposals and the reviews at the following pages:

The Mash 5.2 milestone release is now available. We
have closed over half the bug reports in our bug
tracking system. The video tool, vic, can now
auto-place its windows.
September 20, 2001
A recent release of the Open Mash code is now available
through the web using the Linux Cross-Reference project
tools. You can browse the current source at http://www.openmash.org/lxr/.

A bug
tracking system and a feature
request tracking system are available for use at our
Open
Mash SourceForge Project.
See
our News archive for older announcements.
The Open Mash Consortium was originally
funded by a grant from the National Science Foundation Internet
Technologies Program (Grant
ANI-9907994) and by contributions from consortium members.
This funding ended in spring 2003, so the development group at U.C. Berkeley
has been disbanded. Future developments will depend on contributions
from the Open Source community.
