MythTV as a project by developers for developers, is linux considered a
Developers Operating System, or a real operating system. MythTv should
have stopped considering itself a "project by developers for developers"
around the time specific distro's like "mythbuntu", "mythdora" and the
like emerged.

Id like to see the day that I can go down to my local Electrical
Retailer, and buy a TV that operates as a MythTV Frontend (and possibly
a SBE). IMHO - MythTV is by far the best DVR around. Much to the
credit of Developers past and present.
A mechanism to donate to MythTV could be considered, so we (the users)
can support further development.
