Announcement: Open Source Software on sigmm.org

The new Open Source Software section on SIGMM's webpage at sigmm.org contains information about open source multimedia software.

The intention is to provide a space for fostering better synergy between the multimedia and the open source communities. To facilitate the sharing of software developed by different researchers, we are providing an environment to share your software here. Your software should also include documentation giving all appropriate information to use it easily. Also, if the techniques behind the software have appeared in research publications, please include those references also.

The new section is still under construction, but you can already find information about the Open Source Software Competition of ACM Multimedia over the years with links to the project and to the published paper in the ACM Digital Library. You can already find more than 50 other relevant project including a link and short description.

We hope that you make good use of the new section and look forward to your feedback and inputs.
