Not GPL compatible #26

Closed xatabhk closed 2 years ago

xatabhk commented 2 years ago

(https://github.com/ietf-wg-cellar/matroska-specification/pull/573#issuecomment-1013828067) The AVS3 won't be used in contribs of many popular tools/players as it's a BSD 4-clause license, meaning it needs an "advertising" in the software with a copyright notice. This is incompatible with GPL code. Would it be possible to relicense the code to a different license like the BSD 3-clause that is GPL compatible ?

The goal would we to have proper support in VLC (out of the box). Even FFmpeg support would benefit from it.

Thanks for your advices. The license has been changed to BSD 3-clause.
