Comment (by cehoyos):

 I missed the comment from J-B, sorry! I saw some remarks from the thieves
 though (on the very same day that copyright violations were committed to
 their repository!) accusing FFmpeg of bad behaviour regarding open-source
 software licenses.

 There is apparently some misunderstanding regarding the word ''thieve''
 (and ''liar''): Some people seem to believe that this is meant as an
 insult which is of course not true. I did send some insults to the mailing
 list three years ago (after having read that commit rights are to much
 responsibility for me and after MPlayer infrastructure was stolen).
 Nowadays I just find it necessary to make it completely clear that the
 usual mails sent by the avconv developers contain obvious lies and that
 copyright violators are thieves imo.
