I'm sure it wouldn't be a small project but maybe not as big as
httpclient. Of course it would depend on the number of
encoders/decoders included in the project. There are a couple of Java
implementations already for MP3 and OGG/Vorbis but by different parties
and so work differently. I would like to see a unified interface to
various encoders/decoders so client software can use a simple API to
access various kinds of media, hence my desire to see a project in
commons/jakarta to deal with this. I can't think of a better home.
I await your advice on the issue of patents (Martin van den Bemt)
however should the possibility of patent issues stop us ? I mean there
is a patent for MP3 but the folks at javazoom have released an MP3
decoder. Isn't it OK to release in source form ?
how do we/I proceed ?

Probably not within Commons. They all sound like quite large projects
and Commons is more about smaller codebases.
That said, I've never developed audio/video so maybe it's simpler than
I think :)

is there any interest in developing a set of media tools to handle the
