a lot of manuals, hacks, links and interesting applications in the field of
streamind media. we might want to think about some of the ideas.

yes, Adam Hyde showed it to me as well last week. a really really good
resource on streaming, indeed!!
Instead of reinventing the wheel with streaming in LiveSupport, is there a
way we can provide an API that would let users use LS with any number of
streaming solutions?
I guess the problem is that most streaming servers don't have an API, or
do they?

that API is gstreamer. streaming will be handled by appropriate
gstreamer elements in 1.1

these are communication protocolls, not APIs. but of course all of them
have a protocoll of some sort - some documented better than others. some
also provide libraries to use, like libshout made by the icecast people.
but the use of these is optional, the protocols usually are quite simple.
