Vorbis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Xiph.org Foundation says that Vorbis, like all its developments, is completely free from the licensing or patent issues raised by other proprietary formats such as MP3. Xiph says that it was privately issued a legal opinion subject to attorney/client privilege. Although Xiph says it has conducted a patent search that supports its claims, outside parties (notably engineers working on rival formats) have expressed doubt that Vorbis is free of patented technology. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Vorbis

everwicked.com - The ultimate portal to Digital Video - Xiph.org Foundation unveils 'Theora' People are demanding that Xiph 'make a stand' on the naming of Ogg files, and then telling us we're stupid when we do, so I don't know if there is a good solution out there, other than the ability for people to make up their own minds. I imagine a 'Xiph world' as a terribly empowering place to be for artists and producers, and a fantastic place to be if you love multimedia. Xiph is moving with large steps into the multimedia industry, offering both audio and video solutions. everwicked.com /content/Articles/Theora.Project.Announcement.23062002

Hydrogenaudio Forums -> Emmett Plant Leaves Xiph.Org Foundation Xiph foundation will lose a valuable person, who not only made Xiph more colorful and gave it a unique personality, but also with his personal effort very much made Vorbis and other Xiph's products familiar to people looking for free multimedia solutions. I personally feel that this is a major blow to Xiph - Emmett, in my opinion was an excellent ambassador, and within the time he had been CEO, over $60,000 was raised to finance the company, strategic relationships were forged with big media players like RealNetworks and On2 and generally raising awareness for Ogg Vorbis. On a related topic, is there any information about the Xiph organization's operation available openly? www.hydrogenaudio.org /forums/index.php?act=ST&f=2&t=8391

Emmet Plant fired as CEO of Open Source Foundation Xiph.org (Ogg Vorbis) While he always called himself CEO and seemed to be the main man of Xiph, he has received the message from the foundation board that he should find himself a new job. But to he honest, Emmet has done a lot of work on Xiph and he should be honoured for that. There have been communications problems from the very beginning with the board of Xiph. www.cdfreaks.com /news2.php?ID=7020
