similar to: [Flac-users] FLAC joins Xiph

It's official: http://xiph.org/ogg/flac.html It's OK to keep submitting patches but I'm going to hold off on integrating anything until CVS is moved over. Note that codec code (libFLAC, libFLAC++, libOggFLAC, libOggFLAC++) will be covered under Xiph's BSD-like license from here on out.

That is the question I put before you all tonight :) (Short background, Xiph is the corp behind Vorbis and Ogg, among other things; see http://xiph.org/about.html . I think Emmett is here now so correct any of this if it's wrong.) I've been talking a little with Emmett Plant and Monty about this. If it were to happen, it would mean the following: 1. FLAC would benefit from the

Not at all. But what I said is that there is no proof that hardware vendors only want

Really, it's a case of resource management and helping things along in an inclusive manner, as opposed to an exclusive manner. Sure, we could just start building on it and give it out, but that's not really our style. I'd much prefer to take some of the resources we have and offer them to a project that has proven that it can kick a lot of ass on its own. There's no question in my

I have an Athlon Thunderbird 1Ghz sitting running all alone in my dorm room while I'm at home for six weeks. I figure I'll run these tests just to give the poor machine something to do. Seeing as 3DNow! extensions seem to enabled by default, I'll give them a whir. I'm running Debian unstable's latest GCC 3.2 prerelease as its compiler. export CC="gcc-3.2" export

Hi all, I have uploaded a source tarball to sourceforge for testing. See the news item in the HTML docs for the changes (or look here: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/flac/flac/doc/html/news.html?rev=HEAD&content-type=text/html ) Download here: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/flac/flac-1.0.5_beta1.tar.gz?download The standard test of 'configure &&

For the interested, the Phatbox (a car audio system) now has firmware to support FLAC files. I have a news bullet on the FLAC site: http://flac.sourceforge.net/news.html#20020213 This is the first hardware support for FLAC (more is coming) and I think the first support of any non-proprietary lossless audio format for any hardware. Kudos to Phatnoise for taking the lead. Josh
