2007 May MonthlyMeeting

Is to be held on Wednesday, 16th of May at 06:00 UTC

Google Summer of Code 2007; how are the projects/candidates going?
discussing current proposals to use Xiph codecs outside Ogg and which one we should endorse1 2
- I, Ivo, have talked with Monty about this proposal from the mplayer people, and we decided it would be best to reach a consensus between the concerned parties (i.e. our codec developers).
put an end to the bloody extension mess. Check if we all agree with the current MIME Types and File Extensions proposal.
libao
- BeN [F1233 121D3R] offer to mantain libao and provide a libao win32 patch.
theora
- What about releasing 1.0alpha8 with current svn of theora-old, while completing the transition to the new complete decoder (which now is slower in many cases)? Current svn of theora-old has a faster decoder and an improved encoder wrt 1.0alpha7.
vorbis
- development plan for vorbis encoder (personal note: I do not think this is relevant yet--Ivo 09:52, 15 May 2007 (PDT))
XSPF
- move of XSPF validator of Sebastian Pipping to Motherfish (needs admin access for Python setup, or something like that)
- making a priority to add default XSPF support on Icecast (there's a volunteer working on a XSLT for this; MikeS we would like your opinion)
