Sorry to go on with this kind of thread (on a dev list!), but i
disagree. Any other
point of view here? It seems since some time i only talk with Mr.
Felker...

OK, now we are with menace. Are you talking for the rest of MPlayer
developers?
What do Gabucino and others think of that?
I still think i am right in the GPL license. You will not convince me
by playing with
words replacing "component" by "modules" then by "framework" when you
see framework
in the QuickTime file's path or being dihonest pretending false
assertions to do your
argumentation.
However, i always take care of original developer's opinion being in my
GPL right or not.
So if you don't want people to use your internal library, that's your
choice, i respect it.
Again, any kind of different point of view here?

Jérôme
