Apple QuickTime for Linux petition

Post by J. Reeves Hal » Wed, 02 Feb 2000 04:00:00



In case you haven't seen it already, there's a petition to request
that Apple port a complete implementation of QuickTime to Linux. The
current players don't handle some of the more important codecs, in
particular the popular Sorenson codec.

The petition is at http://neutron.resnet.gatech.edu/qt-petition.html

Perhaps. That'd make their job easier. I really think there's a chance of
this petition having the desired effect.
