Every news of Winamp and its entities. Winamp has announced that it is opening up its source code to enable collaborative development of its legendary player for Windows.

Would be funny if Winamp gets a second life ~20 later.

    If they chose an open source license, a fork under a different name would be possible (else it’s not open source).

    Their wording is ambiguous, so maybe they only talk about keeping the name/trademark to themselves, which is definitely a good choice.

    It’s also not clear if they accept contributions, but they’ll likely keep deciding what features should get added or not.

    At least that’s how I understand it.
