All non-commercial use is free, but commercial users are asked to pay for regular updates of the data in order to help fund the project. We encourage all data users to contribute to the data gathering process so that our data can be as comprehensive as possible. The MetaBrainz Foundation believes in transparent finances and has several commercial supporters who pay for timely and convenient access to data.

 FLOSS Weekly 408: Interactive Fiction | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 1:15:08

The Interactive Fiction Technology Foundation (IFTF) helps ensure the ongoing maintenance, improvement, and preservation of the tools and services crucial to the creation and distribution of interactive fiction, as well as the development of new projects to foster the continued growth of this art form.Interactive fiction was one of the first genres to emerge in computer gaming. It remains a driving force and a leading edge for the broad, ever-developing spectrum of digital games. Today, interactive fiction presents a medium uniquely suited to experimenters and artists. IF can be written without a budget, without a publisher, without a team of artists or programmers. Since the 1990s it has been supported entirely by hobbyists, open-source projects, and informal associations of enthusiasts. It is the purpose of IFTF to offer organized support to these many passion-driven projects, helping to ensure the survival and growth of interactive fiction while maintaining the unique advantages of this medium.

 FLOSS Weekly 403: Atomic Host | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 1:20:37

Project Atomic is an umbrella for many projects related to re-designing the operating system around principles of immutable infrastructure, using the LDK (Linux, Docker, Kubernetes) stack. Many of the components of Project Atomic are upstream components of OpenShift Origin v3. The primary building block of Project Atomic is the Atomic Host, a lightweight container OS which implements these ideas. Atomic Hosts are immutable since each is imaged from an upstream repository, supporting mass deployment. Applications run in containers. Atomic Host versions based on CentOS and Fedora are available, and there is also a downstream enterprise version in Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

 FLOSS Weekly 398: ClusterHQ | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 1:18:22

At ClusterHQ, we describe ourselves as The Container Data People™. We believe that support for databases and other stateful services across the entire application life-cycle is a major missing piece of the puzzle for containers and Docker. Without the ability to easily and securely create and share copies of production data, development teams can't fully test their applications before moving to production. Without support for data migration, high availability and disaster recovery, containers can't easily capture the entire application (including databases, queues, and key-value stores) in production in a way that ops can manage. Why should the heart of most applications live outside the container? Download or subscribe to this show at https://twit.tv/shows/floss-weekly Here's what's coming up for FLOSS in the future.
