According to this PDF at their website, it appears that even by introducing the Democracy name, they weren't dropping the DTV name. — Tokek 14:22, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
Is this page anything more than an advertisement? The links don't work, and neither does the windows uninstall for the software. How best to reflect that in the article? - Sweavo 22 Jan 2007
Sounds like Cory Doctorow won out and the project recently changed its name to Miro, the url will be changing to
getmiro.com soon. Probably not worth mentioning until they make the change over.

Image:Miro.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

The screenshot being used is very old - at version 0.9.9 while the current version is 2.0.3. I presume that uploading a newer one (as the ui is significantly different enough) would be worthwhile? Faemir ( talk) 02:32, 28 May 2009 (UTC)
I changed the screenshot from 0.9.9 to 3.5. CyberWasteland ( talk) 16:45, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
The substantive content of the article is barely a dozen sentences or so (as of this note); it is dwarfed by a multi-screen table of the version revision history, down to four-decimal version numbers, some only days apart, most giving no information other than the version number and date. This seems awkward and not very useful. Perhaps just a brief mention of major upgrades, and a note on the name change, would suffice? KTK ( talk) 22:59, 1 March 2011 (UTC)
Should provide the intended pronunciation. I for one haven't been able to locate it... Cub
I think note should be made in the article that this softwares newest version, 3.0.3 by default it seems contains malware, something Ad-Aware id's as "Zugo (fs)" ..

Can somebody fix my reference if I don't get back to this in time. Also the references and links are all mixed up.--tumaru 03:09, 18 January 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tumaru ( talk • contribs)
I remove some reports of scumwaare in Miro as this is certainly caused by people that downloaded 3rd party infected versions of miro ( vla suffers a similar problem because of its good name.
It would be good if this topic got covered from the other angle, here is an official blog post on the topic

Although the intro text has been updated, most of the body of the article is still written as if Miro and a bunch of the PCF's other defunct projects are still active. Given that it's a dead project, and the article is now only useful for historical purposes (eg for anyone wanting to study the code, or the evolution of independent media in the digital age), it probably makes sense to heavily prune it down to what can be found it suitable third-party sources. What do others think? -- Danylstrype ( talk) 16:03, 7 March 2019 (UTC)
