if anyone tells me enough to verify that, actually i dont even know who 
fabrices employer company is, and if he is seriously violating it, like 
keeping improvements closed source then ill ensure he stops, but i wont 
complain if hes just ignoring some detail of the lgpl like everyone else

btw, IMHO dual licensing will mean mplayer G2s death, ppl simply wont 
contribute anymore, or would u contribute to a project for which someone else 
gets alot of money?
