Context And Goals
This tasks aims at publishing a multimedia database system that would enable each content provider to share his media archive with other G.I.S.S. participants. This media database should be available as a GPL package for most common systems ( debian, ubuntu, ... ) and easy to install on any G.I.S.S. user server.
G.I.S.S. will not provide hosting space, but the package and instructions to set up your own database easily and to connect it to other multi-media archives.
Work achieved
Start point
A first version, not complete for giss purposes, has been published in catalan for the internal canal of hangar : Video Canal Hangar

Second phase of development ( achieved 25/09/2008 )
Here, in the HBCSE center in Mumbai, we concentrated on developping the second phase :
- documentation and installation instructions
- traduction in other languages
- search engines
- and last but not least, adding RSS support
that adds distributed capability to the publishing system, see on Giss dmmdb an example of friend channels ( from artefacte.org ).

Future Plans
The goals of GISS 3.0 have been reached with the release of the RC1, but some future developments are planned, like implementing playlists, statitics, favorites, ....
this will be the object of the development of DMMDB 2.0, for which we will welcome in the team Sanjay Bhangar from camputer.org, who worked on a professional video editing system : pad.ma
