The author makes no sense:<p>"Basically MPEG LA did a very naughty thing. They added a metric ton of patents to their patent pool AFTER all the developers had signed up"<p>What is that supposed to mean? If a developer has signed up to license the MPEG-LA patents already, adding more to the pool isn't going to cost the developer any more.
I don't understand what he's asking here. JavaFX apparently supported using local H.264 codecs on certain operating systems. Is that what got removed? Or is it the VP6 support that got removed?<p>On a related topic Oracle is listed as a WebM supporter on the website, which I assumed was related to JavaFX since I knew it used On2 VP6 for cross platform video, but I haven't seen any announcement about what they're actually planning.
