At #librecast we've still got quite a bit of our work for @ngi Assure to finish merging in.

Speaking recently to a couple of folks we found that they didn't realise we make our code free.

We make it available as GPLv2 only or GPLv3 only. We love releasing our code to the commons.

We use #FreeSoftware as well. We couldn't do what we do without it.

@NGIZero also does insist that the code produced for it is released under an OSI approved licence.

@NGIZero enabled us to start work on Librecast. We wouldn't have been able to keep working on Librecast without being funded by @EC_NGI

The projects we work with wouldn't have been able to do what they do without NGI Funding.

We've signed the Open Letter posted by @ps

We encourage our fellow projects in #NGIZero, #NGIAssure, #NGISearch and #NGIPointer to do the same.

We'd like to talk about multicast. It's the best way to build a scalable decentralized internet. We also believe that a scalable decentralized internet is important to protect our democratic lifeline. @dentangle spoke about this at LCA in 2020

Librecast has always hosted our own git repos, but we also maintain a public mirror separately at github.

Due to the post by @conservancy@mastodon.technology, we have decided to start the migration process of our code from github to @codeberg@mastodon.technology .

Our main library librecast is @ https://codeberg.org/librecast/librecast

But we have some other tools you can check out as well. All of course themed around #multicast.

@FediFollows
Thanks for the introduction! Hi Fediverse!

We have a Peertube channel on spectra.video @librecast@spectra.video as well, which we will be adding to.

We have some posts coming up soon about the various milestones we have done and what functionality they do.

We believe in building small tools using multicast which forms the building blocks for librecast live. @dentangle is our project founder. @onepict operates the account.

Who hoo! That's liblibrecast 0.6.1 in #guix!
