        Installation-free
        -----------------
        In order to provide installation-free package, we provide binary executables
        for Linux (32 and 64bits), Windows, and Mac OS X.
        The binaries files were generated with Pyinstaller_ (version 1.5RC1).
        
        If you have Python installed, you can directly run the start_crawl.py script at
        root or the pytomo script in bin directory.
        
        External Resources
        ------------------
        We based the lib_youtube_download on `YouTube Download`_ script: we simplified
        it at most and include only the classes we needed (and only YouTube video
        retrieval).
        
        The dns module is taken from the `DNS Python Package`_: we just modified rdata
        so that Pyinstaller_ include all needed modules.
        
        The extraction of metadata out of video files is an adaptation of `Kaa Metadata
        Python Package`_: it has been modified in order to be independent of Kaa-base
        (thus pure Python and portable).
