there is no door closed forever. gplv2 code is still open source and ffmpeg has many files with gplv2 copyright. licensing between lgpl and gplv2 only really affects people who sell/distribute ffmpeg. since people who sell ffmpeg want a different license, they can pay to have an author relicense their work. which has happened many times in ffmpeg's 20+year history. -compn _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
