Daunting indeed! But see also:

http://mail.gnome.org/archives/marketing-list/2005-February/msg00040.html

Judging by that, it seems that GPL decoders (and even encoders) may
be ok with the patent holders (though I suspect you'd want to
confirm it with the source of the info).

OTOH, short of an explicit and public exemption clause for non-commercial
use, every encouragement for people to move over to ogg is probably
worthwhile :)
