I personaly consider "mp3/mp4" and "ogg" (vorbis, theora, ...) NOT
as "the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it".
I asume, that there are nore then one person on the list aggree with me.
So whats the prefered form of source.
For "mp3" and "ogg-vorbis" it can be "wav", "flac" or "shn" but what
about videos?
I have a Video splited in singel bitmaps, which mena 25 images per second
and I do not know, whether this can be the desired form of distribution
since a short video of ONE second (512x384/24) would be 14 MByte as
bitmaps which is by "a little bit larger videos" undesirable since it
exceed any logical distribution limits.
Please note, that I am talking about some embedded Videos in games and
equivalent stuff... since I know, that there is a game (GPL v2) which
can fill without any problems an entired DVD (4.2 GByte) with it
sourcecode if distributed as bitmaps... otherwise 1-2 CD's. The Game
without the Videos is definitivly useless.
