Hi, I'm going to sponsor xvidcore, an MPEG4 encoding/decoding library (RFP #232658), packaged by Edouard Gomez (one of the upstream developers).
I've been pointed out that MPEG4 is convered by a patent. However, also been told that this shouldn't be a problem unless the patent holder is actively enforcing the patent against us. Note that we are already using MPEG4 code in debian (e.g. xine package). Unless someone objects, I'll upload after a few days.
