.tar.bz2 even better :)

Just my opineon.

btw: Take a look on www.heroinewarrior.com -- There you'll find a
MPEG import/export library with a quite clean interface. This could be a
good solution for native MPEG movies. I don't want to do this now, but if
somebody else has the time to do so, feel free ...

I'll write the .ppm import support today.

Great. Could you send a post when the first clip is alive ??

Yes. (I just was not shure if Monty and jack would agree - on the other
hand it may make sense to develop different approaches, JPEG2000 will
support both an integer and a floating point wavelet codecs - there must
be a reason:)

Any suggestions about licensing ?
I'm not shure if LGPL is free enough for a compression codec, a static
linkage can really make sense in some environments. Perhaps BSD ?

And last but not least, could somebody with ogg knowledge take a look 
on how to write the header information and Y/U/V bitstreams to an ogg
stream ?

Thanks,

- Holger
