I mean with respect to looking in packages to find out if they have a coder or a decoder. So, we have a document that supports a reasonable belief that the patents that cover parts of the MPEG-4 standard are invalidated by prior art. But, we have a history of patent enforcement that certainly covers the AAC encoding process and may cover the decoding process. As well as code that implements the decoding process for both AVC and AAC, we have libx264 that encodes AVC in main. Should we continue regarding the MPEG-4 patents invalid, for either or both of encoding and decoding, or should we remove code?
