[theora-codecs] Call for bugs and suggestions

[dan miller]

Hi Mauricio, and welcome aboard.

The main issue I am aware of involves QT6 on OSX.  I don't have an active setup so I haven't been
able to isolate the issue.  The complaint generally seems to involve low performance.  There is
someone at Apple who took an interest in this, I will attempt to dig up his email addr.

Other than that, I think the most important thing we can do first is to keep an up-to-date set of
ready-to-install binaries somewhere.  The official binaries are now kept at www.vp3.com/getvp3,
and require an email registration.  We should set up a link to somewhere on xiph.org and remove
the reg requirement.  I assume there's an equivalent place for Vorbis binaries?
