Acknowledgments
New ideas and insights thrive and prosper on vibrant and inspiring exchange of views. The FDS project group at the EBU was a great environment to look at broadcasting from a different perspective which paved the way to new understanding. I am very grateful to all colleagues for their engagement, enthusiasm and passion. My special thanks go to Darko for all his support, backing and help to find the right direction over the last years.
