[vorbis] IBM invests $ 10^9 in Linux, maybe they'll sponsor Vorbis?

[Roland Nagtegaal]

Hello Vorbis developers,

you probably had the same idea already, but maybe IBM
is interested in sponsoring Vorbis, or being your patron.
If they are going to invest $ 10^9 in Linux, protecting
vorbis from harm, and possible injecting resources into
that project would be peanuts to them.
I don't know if IBM does anything with multimedia, but
they could only gain if strong technology in that field
(digital audio/video codecs) were available for Linux.
They certainly are a match to fraunhofer et co.
And I would not be surprised if they wanted to employ
you right away.
Finding the right people to talk to could be a problem,
maybe.

Anyway,

just my .02 c suggestion.

Roland
