BladeEnc Development Officially Discontinued 16
skojt writes: "I saw on the Swedish site gnuheter.org that Tord Jansson has announced that he discontinues
development of BladeEnc. He says that he is tired of lawyers, that Lame does a better job for the average user and that Ogg Vorbis is a better choice." BladeEnc fans need not worry too much, though -- Jansson also says on the site "My devotion to the free software movement is as strong as ever and I just love to tinker with code, so you can be quite sure that you haven't seen the last of me yet."
Perhaps he could work with the Theora project? (Score:3, Insightful)
If he's into multimedia and codecs and such. I'd love to see usable code come out of the Ogg/Theora project [theora.org] soon - especially an encoder...
He's obviously got talent and experience with related coding from BladeENC, and Theora has a similar goal ("free" multimedia for wide use)...
Not that I'm anxious to see Theora take off or anything :-)
