*SOME BACKGROUND TO THE OPENMUTE PROJECT *OpenMute is unique in that we have created a system that automates thereplication of certain very powerful open source tools, not only making themavailable to those without the requisite technical skills to install andadapt independently, but also reducing the many associated costs. OpenMuteaims to make such tools available to individuals and communities who werepreviously unable to use them. Additionally, we aim to provide enoughsupporting information, and channels of communication between users,technical staff, etc., to create a culture of self-education andcollaboration around their use.OpenMute harnesses Mute magazine's decade-long experience of paper andinternet publishing to accommodate a wide variety of internet users, from theone-woman band to the medium-sized organisation. Our development as a smallorganisation has demonstrated how important staying on top of day to dayworkflow is, and how ever-present issues such as ease of use, adaptability,speed and low costs are. It is with these criteria in mind that we havetailored our packages.We started work in earnest on OpenMute in July 2002 with the financial support of the Arts Council of Endland's Publications and Recordings pilot programme. During this time we worked on building our technical infrastructure and configuring the web software tools. After extensive testing we are now able to launch our first free service, OM1, and over the next couple of months we will be launching a number of custom services.The custom services will allow users to add design and functionality to theOM1 package. At present we have a number of packages in development for filmmakers, photographers and software developers. As part of OpenMute'scommitment to being an Open Source project, we have made it possible for youto participate in the development of these advanced services through our sitehttp://support.openmute.org, where you are invited to take part in theseprojects.Even more about usSee About Us menu item on http://www.openmute.org/
