Thanks Rüdiger, I'd just like to express a general interest in the rather cool 
platform you've built. We're a primarily a windows environment and if you were 
ever interested in exploring some work on a Windows client that could handle 
scheduling we'd like to tag along if there's anyway we could help. We're still 
fairly new to Opencast Matterhorn, but this is something I've been asked for 
more than once.

We in Osnabrück have an LGPL licensed alternative too [1], but I did not 
mention it in this context as we use a different technology stack (Windows) and 
our project is not complete in features yet (no scheduling i.e.) and not as 
mature as the Galicaster.

And maybe even other open source options may appear in the future?

Especially Teltek's Galicaster is an valid alternative to the reference Capture 
Agent as it has an open source license too and works on very similar hardware.

I'd agree with this statement. When we were looking at capture agents we either 
wanted an off the self product for simplicity or something we could customise 
to our environment. We ended up going for customisation and Galicaster vs the 
reference agent didn't even get off the paper stage. Galicaster was and is 
evolving so much more rapidly, it's a bit more user friendly to noobs and seems 
to have a much more active community.

That said I'm wondering how Teltek would feel about being the only future FOSS 
offering on the capture agent seen?
