This technology and the underlying hardware is the most important asset of Joost. A really big number of flash programmers could create a MUCH better UI with skinning, better content suggestions, playlist sharing , viewers chat (anything - you name it) for just a couple of weeks.

What they will never be able to develop and deploy is this system, to make the nice UI useful enough…

So, mostly these guys just waste a lot of their personal time on something Joost team will make all by itself, taking the best ideas from the fan-generated pool…

By the way, Joost will likely not have a web version, because it is unable to support it’s torrent-like content sharing dogma, thus each web-based client won’t bring more stability or more download speed into the system and will just be a pure expense…
