I say build it in (I don't think we can do mp3 ringtones easily without it... or does qmplayer take care of that too)? Worse case scenario Thompson or whichever jerk owns the patent sends a takedown notice and you go back to leaving it out. If you insist everything is 100% legal, http://www.softwarefreedom.org/ may be able to help us out. It may even count as legit legal advice. If you don't feel like talking to them, I can do it on your/qt* behalf. _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
