BBC and IPTV
The BBC Trust invited the chairman of the Open Source Consortium to its event
on 26 February, launching a public consultation on the BBC's proposal to
develop a joint venture partnership (project "Canvas") to help enable the
delivery of internet protocol television (IPTV).
BBC and IPTV - Project Canvas
The Open Source Consortium welcomes the decision by the BBC Trust to seek its
views on this issue. As with BBC iPlayer, we want to ensure that the proposal
does not adversely affect the ordinary consumer to use any suitable software
enabled device, without requiring special skills to operate it.
This will be achieved by ensuring genuine interoperability using unencumbered
open standards, rather than de facto industry standards imposed by dominant
players in the software industry seeking market advantage.
