Free Culture Podcasts
History
The project dates back to 2013 when the idea of keeping a list of Linux,
Making, Hacking and other technical podcasts was suggested. Various attempts
to build such a system were made, culminating in a Perl script called
feedWatcher
which maintained a SQLite database of podcast feeds.
For the FOSDEM meeting of 2020 a table was requested to represent as many of
the Free Culture podcasts whose details could be collected. The name Free
Culture Podcasts was used, a website created
(https://freeculturepodcasts.org) and feedWatcher
enhance to generate the
HTML to populate it.
