Bruno P. Kinoshita commented on IMAGING-57:
-------------------------------------------
There was some user interest on GitHub too:
[https://github.com/apache/commons-imaging/pull/50]
And there is an increase in the number of webp images I've downloaded from
reddit, so might have a go at it soon. Probably after the next alpha2 release,
and **maybe** before the 1.0 final release.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMAGING-57
> Project: Commons Imaging
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Affects Versions: 1.0-alpha1
> Reporter: Wilian C. B.
> Priority: Major
> Labels: format, image, webp
>
> A new image format designed by Google is emerging, it uses lossy compression.
> It is used to reduce image file size to speed up web page loading and its
> principal purpose is to supersede JPEG as the primary format for photographs
> on the web. It would be really good to add this new image format :-)
