Hi all,
I'm jumping in on this thread to make a few remarks about the spec. I
implemented a FLAC decoder by only looking at the spec, and I have a few
notes that would have saved me a lot of time if the spec had mentioned
them. They are obvious in hindsight, of course.

METADATA_BLOCK_HEADER was taken literally from the C language header files.
These days, I believe that such types have been renamed like
FLAC__METADATA_TYPE_HEADER to avoid potential conflicts with libraries o
