Hi all,

<p>i have readed all the realy sad stuff about software patents in
europe and what allread exists. There is one side related to speex
and i dont know if this is allready discussed here.

Take a look at:

http://swpat.ffii.org/patents/effects/voip/index.en.html

Is speex realy petant free or does patent free only means that
is is not patent by the speex authors? Who have checked that
speex doesn't violates patents others? I don't use IP here,
because most patents are only used to prevent other people
to be creative.

Nonetheless, what the current patent state of speex?

Best Regards,

<p><p>Carsten
