Can someone tell me who the company behind XBMC.org is? Ergo: the company who is closing deals with e.g. Boxee? I remember TheUni revealed this somewhere in a thread but this thread is gone because the host of XBMC was struck by lightning and the best backup was 2 months old.
Thanks in advance.

I'm pretty sure he said it was Apple

Well he meant Steve Jobs, not "Apple" per se.
Seriously... it's like asking who owns Linux. These are "Open Source" community built applications. There is no "company". If nobody works on it, the thing just dies. It has no physical backing... just financial support to run the servers.

Hopefully rwparris2 is a better coder then he is in spreading public information; I don't understand why someone would spread this kind of information.
Gamester owns the domain. But there also is a company who is closing deals with e.g. Boxee. Normally, this information is public on the front page.

The non-profit XBMC Foundation will be the closest match to the round peg you are trying to fit in to a square hole.

FYI - The Apple references were a joke.

Wow. Someone needs to lighten up. I'm not going to say who, but they posted in this thread.
