Thanks for forwarding the discussion.

I wonder whether we should rather use our strength in users' demand in
order to make pressure on manufacturers to support free-software
codecs than adopting the costly and patented codecs. I mean, it's not
only about content. MediaWiki and Wikimedia should remain free from a
technical point of view, too.
