You are talking about webp in a report about flif, so I will re-close

A couple of years have gone by, and webp is now supported by all current web
browsers, and modern toolkits such as qt5. and has strong support from the
likes of google, so it is becoming more popular, and is likely to stay around
for a while.

Could someone re-look at adding support.
For export to ms office formats or older odf formats it should be pssible to
change the format to png or jpeg internally for compatibility.

Yep, let's close as we can't really go pioneering with this stuff.

No objection from my side.

He said he would avoid FLIF, in part due to potential legal trouble. JPEG XR
also comes out as pretty "meh" and unmaintained. I would just close both of the
report.

Also removing support for a image format is much harder so adapting a new image
format should take a lot of consideration as it can have long lasting effects. 

For most use-cases recompressing a image and lowering the resolution would save
much more bits with virtually very little consequence for most people.

It is our responsibility to the user that the document he creates can be opened
with older versions of LO and other office suites. It is true that there is no
limitations which image formats should a document format support (neither by
ODF nor OOXML - just recommendations), we still need to choose the formats that
are widely used and supported by others. When a less supported format is used,
we need to warn the user that, which means we need to implement this missing
functionality.

Also there are other considerations in addition as every new library increases
the size of LO and increases the maintenance burden and things needed to be
tested. So by that we shouldn't adopt just any image format but one that would
be at least used a lot (yes and that generally is the chicken or the egg
problem why even we have more capable formats we still use many decade old
ones).

Generally I would avoid PackJPG or Lepton as they can save you some % by using
a modern entropy coder, but that is not that high to be worth it (it is much
less gain when using properly optimized JPEG files AFAIK). They are mostly used
by cloud storage providers (it was created by dropbox) where they can just
silently losslessly compress the images and gain space (even 5-10% for
petabytes of images is a lot). Support of both is practically non-existent.

I'm not too keen by adapting WebP now when the next-gen format based on AV1 is
not too far away (PIK, also developed by google is looking promising) and
Microsoft being part of AOM alliance I would expect to see support added to
Windows programs as well. WebP has support in Chrome, but generally, even on
Linux, it mostly isn't supported in image viewers.

FLIF is a great lossless image encoder, but currently it lacks support
practically everywhere. Not sure why we should adopt it when it is a good
chance it will be used just by a couple of people. It also uses a CABAC variant
for compression, which legal status is unknown. I would avoid - much more keen
to support WebP instead if I have to choose.

JPEG XR is the only format which I would be comfortable to add. The reason is
that it is supported and used by MSO in some situations (if you apply a image
filter, the original is stored in JPEG-XR so the user can revert the applied
filter) and it is generally supported on every Windows 7 and beyond. The
problem with JPEG XR is that it is not really much of an improvement over JPEG
or PNG (sometimes it is even worse) and that the open-source libjxr is
practically un-maintained library.

importing and using modern open-source image formats should be one of the
strengths of open-source office suites.

packJPG and Lepton save up to 30% bandwidth and decompress in the blink of an
eye.
Original JPEG is restored and can easily be exported when saving as MSO
document.

JPEG-XR is already used by MSO inside documents.
WEBP is a modern standard of Google that works in many browsers and
smartphones.
FLIF compresses even better and gets more and more attention.

Using them, we can say "it stands out from the office suite crowd" also for LO

LibreOffice' goal is to manage as many file formats as possible. That is
basically meant for office documents but being able to deal with various
graphic formats is not prejudicial. 

On the other hand, haven't heard about FLIF and users can always convert alien
image formats with one of the plethora of image tools. Wouldn't put special
effort in the implementation.

I don't know, man.

Let's ask design team about adding support for exotic formats like this.

Bug 114532 is about webp

bug 114531 is about jpeg-xr

bug 114530 is about lepton

reporter also has an older request for packjpg, bug 74128 and Tomaž had a valid
point in there: "I don't think we can use it because if we "pack" a jpeg file
in the document then other programs (OpenOffice, Calligra, MS Office for
example) that don't support packJPG (and probably never will) won't be able to
show it."
