The new JPodcast 2.0 beta version, contains besides many fixes for small bugs, the following new functions:

• Web user interface for the podcast server management
• Web user interface for the single podcast channel administration and upload
• Proxy for podcast channels, with download speed control

JPodcast and Faucet: the new application concept for the Podcast-Broadcast integration have been presented at the conference "II Jornades de Podcasting 2006" held in Barcelona (Spain) from October 20 to 22.
This is the first public announcement about Faucet, and you can get or view here the presentation given.

JPodcast is a podcast server platform, java based, composed of two parts: an engine and a user interface.
The engine serves multimedia files out of a directory, using the file tags as the podcasting item attributes.
The ajax based user interface allows the remote management of the multimedia files, with operations as upload, delete, tag editing.
The pure-java server code runs on different platforms:

• Windows
• Linux
• MacOs

using different servlet containers:

• Tomcat
• Jetty

You can download the engine from Sourceforge. While we plan to release the ajax user interface in August.
