The AMR codec from android is available under the Apache license.  This
license is incompatible with GPLv2, although it is compatible with
GPLv3.  You have the option of distributing FFmpeg under GPLv3, and can
do so along with the apache-licensed AMR codec.  However, the FFmpeg
developers would like to maintain GPLv2 compatibility and for this
reason have chosen not to include this code in FFmpeg.

Development of a new AMR decoder for inclusion in FFmpeg has been
sponsored as part of the 2009 Google Summer of Code.  For the status of
this project, please see
