- If you you like the application and you're feeling particularly generous, then a donation of £1 would go a long way to making me feel like all the time I've put in was worth it.
RadioAunty uses these wonderful 3 party libs. A big thankyou to their authors:
The wonderful XMPP Framework. An XMPP Framework in Objective-C for the Cocoa development community. The framework can be used for desktop applications or iPhone applications.
The wonderful JSON Framework. This framework implements a strict JSON parser and generator in Objective-C.
The wonderful Growl SDK. Growl is a notification system for Mac OS X: it allows applications that support Growl to send you notifications.
NOTE: This app uses the exact same technology as the web based BBC iPlayer, and everything the app makes available is available via http://bbc.co.uk.
