as far as i understand is the jp2 standard documented openly but still patented by the members of the the jpeg group. they decided to make the Part 1, Core coding system (intended as royalty and license-fee free - NB NOT patent-free) available for free. see http://www.jpeg.org/jpeg2000/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JPEG_2000#Legal_issues so there are two issues here: 1. i can't find a license that assures that the Part1 stays free forever 2. all other parts have to be licensed by the jpeg group, speak to be paid for and i'd really like to know if the georeferencing in jp2 is covered by Part1. i doubt that. i think the jpeg group themselves has their part in the missing success. > native datasources for openJUMP whilst close format like ecw must just > be made possible (if possible).
