Hello=2C
I am developing a game engine which will support Ogg Vorbis playback.
If I were to use LibOgg and LibVorbis=2C would I then have to release my ow=
n product under BSD=2C thus requiring anyone who created games with it to d=
o the same and reference Xiph.org in their game's credits?
While I can definitely include a license file with my library=2C enforcing =
my own end-users to do the same would be difficult at best and so I'm wonde=
ring if there is a licensing fee or similar which would allow me to develop=
software which integrates LibOgg and LibVorbis without having to pass lice=
nsing restrictions on to my end users?
Kind regards=2C

Jordan.
