Hi everyone, after attempting to correct Ivo's statement about Theora and Vorbis being the "default codecs" in the HTML 5 draft, I just got the following mail off list: "Why are you still here? And by here I mean the Xiph lists. I've seen you speaking ill of our formats and of free software more than in one occasion. So, for what purpose do you still stick around? What is your intention?" Am I really coming through like such a beefy grouser? I hope people knowing me a little bit better realize that I've spent quite some time on Xiph related work, which however does not keep me from being realistic and rather sceptic towards many of the approaches I've seen to support Xiph. It might just be me, but I don't think bashing around on other formats or claiming incorrect advantages of the Xiph formats will do any good. Regards, Tor
