[QUOTE="szsori, post: 88969, member: 25421"] Just some clarification and answers to a few of your questions. zeflash has been working with me to get my interfaces working perfectly for his purposes. Once this is done, I'll be contacting zag2me and a few people on the Meedio end that have offered to host mirrors. The reason this hasn't been done yet is because I want to limit the amount of work they need to do, so I'm making sure everything is working properly first. My server can easily handle all of the traffic it's getting, but mirrors are still important to provide redundancy. For the comments about relying on a single source and how that can backfire, I agree completely. That's why soon after the mirrors are working properly I'll be open sourcing the entire website and adding it to sourceforge. That, combined with the database mirrors, should provide a complete set of data and files that would allow someone to get it all running properly in the event my server becomes unavailable. The most important part of this is that I'm trying to provide a single source for all of the different HTPC software, which gives us a bigger user group for adding/updating information and banners. Meedio (via a plugin) is already using the database. MP should soon be following suit, since zeflash has been putting in a LOT of time working on this. XBMC has contacted me about the interfaces and I contacted the programmer of the xlobby tv plugin, so hopefully there will be even more users. If anyone has any other questions about the database, please ask. [/QUOTE]
