Subject Re: [HaCkmEeTiNg] [bushnell@cs.oberlin.edu: [IMC-Tech] vp3 codec to be released under lgpl] 


e' 6 mesi che va in giro sta cosa di vp3

il loro codec sara' anche definibile open-source, ma non e' free
software - e sono in molti a temere che sia una manovra di mercato che
si possa risolvere in una virata sulla licenza, come e' stato con la
fraunhofer.

tuttavia l'mp3 e' stato utile.....
