+<h3>[ 2004 Dec 6 - Fluendo funds RTP streaming of Theora and Vorbis ]</h3>
+<p>Streaming media startup <a href="http://www.fluendo.com/">Fluendo.com</a>
+announced today they will be funding a spec and reference implementation
+for encapsulation of Theora video and Vorbis audio over the RTP streaming
+protocol, important for multicast, digital broadcast, and conferencing
+applications.</p>
+<p>A <a href="http://www.fluendo.com/press/releases/PR-2004-03.html">press 
+release</a> was issued this morning.</p>
+<p>While HTTP streaming of Ogg-encapsulated multimedia has been supported
+for most of the history of our free codecs, RTP support is an oft-requested
+feature that we've never had a good solution for. We're very happy to 
+see Fluendo driving this new work.</p>
+<p>Phil Kerr will be managing the developement of the new drafts. The 
+development process is open, with discussion taking place in the new
+<a href="http://lists.xiph.org/mailman/listinfo/xiph-rtp">xiph-rtp</a>
+mailing list. Please join if you're interested in these issues.
