Well, there is another player in this business and it seems that the project momentum makes it a favorite. The name is RTMPd located at rtmpd.com
Recently Adobe just threatened to sue Sourceforge if they don't remove the rtmpdump project, which was actually a reverse engineer of the Flash client to dump RTMP (stands for Real Time Multimedia Protocol) data. All this was because the guy there reversed engineered the RTMPE protocol also (the encrypted one) and it is not so encrypted anymore, the reverse engineering showing lots of weaknesses. Well, yesterday rtmpd.com released the server version of the same protocol, becoming the first serious competitor to FMS. I know this sounds like an ad for some of you, but the server I am talking about is free, yes, you heard me right: BSD license. It works on all BSD platforms, OSX and Windows. The Linux port is underway."
