Request - Javascript player using Media Source Extensions
...ource Extensions to play Icecast streams on modern browsers. Based on my limited research, the following players do not seem to support Icecast streams: Aurora.js - Icecast does not support HEAD requests, which Aurora.js seems to require. Shaka - Needs DASH manifests, cannot play off a simple URL. IANAL but MPEG LA seems to have issued a call for patents on DASH. Please do not suggest Flash players. Thanks, ab

R-base licensing question
...nd basically all R add-on packages) be required to have GPL-compatible licenses is not the intent (especially considering the LGPLed header files mentioned above). R's position is somewhat unique in having much of the base functionality interpreted. In practice, this legal interpretation (IANAL, etc) would require essentially all R packages and other R scripts to be licensed in a GPL-compatible way. Is a legal exception in order here? My apologies if this question is more appropriate for r-users or has been answered elsewhere. Thanks, Logan

[LLVMdev] [cfe-dev] C++11 reverse iterators (was C++11 is here)
...e adaptors. If possible, I'm going to work on contributing a basic selection of them to LLVM's ADT specifically to address the immediate needs of range-based for loops. There’s a decent selection of range adaptors in Boost.Range [1]. I’m not sure the license [2] allows copying the source (IANAL), but any reason not use the same names? I don’t see any reason to reinvent the wheel here. [1]: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_55_0/libs/range/doc/html/range/reference/adaptors/reference.html [2]: http://www.boost.org/users/license.html

CrossOver license
Hey guys, I have a question about CrossOver and the LGPL license. I'm looking into licensing some software of my own and I'm not sure if I can. >From what I've read the LGPL license doesn't allow any product to be sold if it's based on LGPL protected software, unless it uses the software simply as a plug-in: > A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the

Some simple questions
...ASE and ASAO? Are there other free or commercial codecs I should be looking at? Is there maybe an analog to the comparison chart at the website that gives performance characteristics, etc? Or, maybe, even just an idea of the baseline CPU that's realistic for realtime full duplex VOIP? Also, IANAL. The xiph.org variant of the BSD license looks *really* simple, but I'd like to check and be sure. If I were to use Speex in a closed source binary-only commercial product, it would be sufficient to note the copyright and the list of conditions in the manual, yes? (I also intend to put the c...

Well IANAL, but: imho red hats "terms of service" on their website are not valid , at least in germany (where I happen to live). In germany you can not bind someone to some silly "terms of service" by just displaying them on some random website. you need to agree to those tos actively so...

iLBC re-licence
Does anybody know if the updated licence on iLBC makes it safe to include in Asterisk when used in a commercial environment again? https://sites.google.com/site/webrtc/ilbc-freeware It seems to require that the Google iLBC licence document is on the box, but that otherwise it is free-to use by all in any way (BSD licence style). I believe that prior to that there was a requirement to register

CentOS 6 (and 5.6) doc on http://www.centos.org/docs
...entation team, As CentOS 6 is now being released to the mirrors, it would be a good time to think about putting the accurate documentation on http://www.centos.org/docs Red Hat changed their documentation license in the past and they are now using the CC-by-SA license. My own understanding (but IANAL) is that we can just share the documentation , and just linking back to upstream without modifying the documentation. That would be easier for newer doc as every 'bit' that is CentOS specific should/would be in our release note wiki page for that version. Read the "Legal Notice&quo...

I can't say much more because 1) there's no fixed-point yet and 2) I don't know exactly how fast the ARM is. > Also, IANAL.

[LLVMdev] Bi-Endian Compiler
...ul for when you flip the bits, but need to try to triage exactly where the problem is 2) As other stated - the llvm ir is relatively easy for this - most of our changes are on the clang side 3) Be *very* careful about patents. There are a number of compiler companies that patents around this area. IANAL and I would not typically say this, but it's something which llvm should approach cautiously and probably get advice on before accepting patches. /* I have full docs on what we've done, but it's not public. I can share with any interested parties */ Thanks
