Kaltura is the New York-based company which has developed an open source video publishing platform which allows users to collaborate on video and other forms of rich media.  Much of the company's development team is in Israel. 

Since last January, it has worked with the Wikipedia Foundation to bring its tools to Wikipedia and other wiki sites.

Consumer sites are starting to embrace Kaltura including BigThink which is using it for community-generated video.

We sat down with Kaltura CEO Ron Yekutiel earlier this month at the AlwaysOn conference in New York.  Ron gave Kelsey an update on the company and his vision of how this open source software will power video collaboration in enterprise systems.  Oh, and AlwaysOn is using Kaltura too.
