Interesting news from Slashdot.org on RealNetworks API:

http://slashdot.org/slashdot.cgi?mode=article&artnum=00000523

"Streaming data, along with Push represents some of the biggest
buzzwords that are going to affect the future of the net, and
RealAudio is taking a step towards doing to Right Thing(tm) by opening
up a programmer's API to the internal organs of their software."

The link at RealNetworks is:

http://www.real.com/realmedia/

There are also links for downloading the RealMedia System Developer
Kit.

Now that the internals of these formats are available, the possibility
of seeing an OS/2 or Java program which can play RealAudio/RealVideo
under OS/2 becomes greater. How about it, OS/2 developers?
