Including David in this reply.

David, what are the plans for an HTML5 based podcast app as Pat mentioned
previously? Has the design team done any work on this and who's leading
this effort? I'm thinking of implementing a native podcast app and am
aiming for as high of quality and usability as the one that ships with iOS.
