AndreI's question
AndreI wrote:
> Why aren't GIF, JPEG, and JPEG2000 on this list?
JPEG2000: highly proprietary
JPEG: proprietary (?), lossy with little benefit only, too much inappropriate usage (poor quality images)
GIF: used to be affected by LZW84 patent, this is now expired, but still not fully free (?), obsolete, poor compression, 256 colors only. Problem: no usable PNG animation so far :-(
