Hi everyone.
Reading all this posts about patent issues, I thought of something:
if, by some wild chance FhG (or some other audio company) manages
to prove in court that vorbis is breaking their patent rights, you could
do something like LAME developers did: release only source code and
let people do the compiling so that only users that are living in countries
where patents on algorithms are valid should pay the licenses. So that
future of vorbis cannot be threatened in any way...
Greetings from FREE Serbia & Yugoslavia,
Aleksandar
