XBMC Community Updates
Boys and Gals
By now you’ve probably realized that XBMC developer’s aren’t into doggies or other unrelated BS that gets them distracted from their key goal – polishing, continuously improving and delivering the finest media center application to its users.
What you might have missed is that XBMC, unlike many other open or closed source projects, has a huge active user base creating skins, scripts, plugins, scrapers and other addons on a regular basis – making full use of XBMC’s flexibility. Since not everyone seems to have the time to read through the hundred’s of new posts on our forum every day, much of this work does not get the attention it deserves. In order to correct this shortcoming, TheUni and myself will try to summarize newsworthy additions from the XBMC community on a regular basis going forward.
At the same time, we’ll try to get any developments in Team XBMC to you – welcoming new team members, pointing towards newly created branches and features under development.
Stay tuned

Hey – I posted a picture of one of our cats (thankfully well disguised in the background) in my last post :p
I think Davilla likes cats also… So is it a dogs vs. cats thing? Because I have both.
This an great idea, thanks alot.
i’am very curios about these updates :)
@Isaac: Yeah, I have a dog as well. The cats run the show, however, like only cats can. Kicking the dog off his own bed is one of their favourite tricks. :p
Hey, gread idea, keep those coming! good job, lads!
This is a great idea. I try and visit the forums every few days, and definately try to keep up with the latest developments – but it is just so huge that its really hard to keep across everything. And you only need to get busy for a week, and suddenly its impossible to catch-up.
It’s a good idea….
Some priority should be given to developing the website. Because I recently switched from MP to xbmc and currently I have a hard time finding plugin/scripts. Eventhough the skins have their own section on the forums it’s still quite difficult to find the actual download link. Or even the most recent one….
I can’t belief that a product this good is this poorly organised..
keep up the good work and I do like this initiative :)
@yfni: If you’re into organisation, then feel free to volunteer to help out – we’re always looking for people to assist. There’s work in progress to improve the situation with plugins and skins, but we always need more help in this regard. Pop over to the forums and offer your skills and time :)
