Yle reached two significant milestones last week. The first was the fact that we published a new browser version of our Web TV and Radio player Yle Areena; the second milestone was what we are announcing here today, that the leadership team of Yle has confirmed the decision to open these APIs to the public initially as a trial and for experimentation.
