A painting of me

GIF, H.264, and Patents. ⇒

   23 March 2010, mid-morning

There is a lot of discussion on Mozilla sticking with Ogg Theora for video when the rest of the major browsers are moving towards H.264. John Gruber argues that people using what happened with GIF (Unisys suing everyone) as a defence of Mozilla’s stance on H.264 have things backwards. GIF is more like like Ogg Theora than H.624.

Don't be shy, you can comment too!

 
Some things to keep in mind: You can style comments using Textile. In particular, *text* will get turned into text and _text_ will get turned into text. You can post a link using the command "linktext":link, so something like "google":http://www.google.com will get turned in to google. I may erase off-topic comments, or edit poorly formatted comments; I do this very rarely.
