[ogg-dev] archive of legacy oggenc/oggenc2 encoders for windows?

[Ethan Bordeaux]

Thanks for all the info - I was able to find exactly what I was looking for
here:

http://codecs.ex-sounds.net/ogg/vorbis/oggenc/

As for what I'm up to, I have a memory-limited port of the Tremor Vorbis
decoder that I want to test on some older vorbis encoders for backwards
compatibility purposes.  Nothing too nefarious.  ;)
