I know a little bit about this. The above site is by a CamStudio fan who appears to be willing to manage further development.

As for TechSmith, I'm not sure which product preceeded which. I don't know their product. CamStudio has been around for several years.

After being sold, someone made an effort to get rid of the open source copies of CamStudio on the internet. They very nearly succeeded.

The buying company released a crippled, non-open "demo" version and then abandoned it. Meanwhile, the fans of CamStudio 2.0 (myself included) scoured their harddrives and eventually recovered all of the pieces. (The source to the codec was the hardest to find.)
