I've actually been talking to Issac. If he wants it he can have it.
Wanted to make sure I didn't tread on his toes with any content that I
published there. Also wanted to protect the domain from some of my
proprietary competition. Wouldn't want M$ or Sky owning it would you?

The aim for it is to be reasonably neutral. OpenMedia will sponsor it
and hopefully derive some exposure, but the driver is the technology and
pushing it locally.
