Thorsten,

you can call it any way you like. Oracle asked Novell if it would
contribute the gstreamer adaptor and Novell said No. This is not an
LGPLv2 issue. The company Novell owns everything an employee of Novell
implements. And if you say No we respect that.

Christian.

I don't know though if the above applies to the gstreamer issue or not.
That is if the gstreamer implementation is/was done completely by using
libraries only and without 'LGPLv2+ patching' SUN source code.

libavmediagst.so is a pure uno component (that even would have
worked as an extension in pre-3layer-OOo). There were a few
insubstantial changes necessary in OOo core code - but those were
offered under JCA/SCA conditions.

So yes, the gstreamer feature would have qualified under your above
rules.

Cheers,
