All, This is an official request for Fedora Project Board Meeting Agenda. Agenda: Image Standard for Fedora Project. Background: Fedora Websites Team, Fedora Arts Team and Fedora Infrastructure Team were discussing which image format is appropriate standard for Fedora Project. Thomas Chung believes PNG is the best format since it's patent-free according to FSF. Toshio Kuratomi believes JPEG is also patent-free format and it should not be banned from using it. Related List Discussions: * https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-websites-list/2007-May/msg00243.html * https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-infrastructure-list/2007-May/msg00107.html We'd like to ask Fedora Project Board to find out if JPEG is truly "patent-free" format by consulting with Lawyers and come up with a decision which format is appropriate for Fedora Project cross-wide.
