Istanbul receives overhaul
Istanbul is a simple "desktop session recorder" that allows you to
create screencasts. It sits in your notification area, and to use it,
you simple click its icon. Its simplicity gave it the potential to
become a very useful tool.
However, over the past year it had fallen out of date and contained
many bugs, pretty much making it unusable in Ubuntu 6.06 - until now.
The creator, Zaheer Abbas Merali, has blogged that Istanbul has just
received a UI overhaul and can now record 3D applications as well as
composited environments (eg. XGL). For now, if you'd like to try out
these updates, you'll have to use the bleeding-edge CVS version, but
you can look forward to them in the next release.
