[Bug 1742] Review Request: vo-aacenc - VisualOn AAC encoder library

http://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1742 --- Comment #11 from Prabin Kumar Datta <linux.n.pkd(a)gmail.com&gt; 2011-06-09 18:38:50 --- Hi! Kevin Kofler, After reading your question I was confused since these are legal issues. So, I asked Upstream about this. Here goes the Upstream's answers of all your questions: Yes, it's true, it is derived from the 3GPP reference implementation - nobody denies that. Except that in this case, VisualOn claims, by releasing the code under the license they have done, that they have the right to doing it. You can only know that by asking 3GPP and VisualOn. The same goes here, you need to ask 3GPP. That's the most authoritive answer you will get, unless you ask VisualOn yourself. I have not done any further research myself - I only redistribute code under the license that I have got it from Google/VisualOn. You can't really get any further by discussing this issue back and forth between people that haven't checked the issue and that aren't lawyers. Either you trust that VisualOn has done things right, or you ask them to provide the necessary documents showing that everything is right. Yes, the same goes for them, too, except that you need to ask PacketVideo instead of VisualOn, for opencore-amr. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
