[vlc-devel] Fwd: Re: QTJ and Linux

[Tony Anecito]

Actually I am interested in the pre-existing binaries
since I have no hope of truely understanding the code
:-)

I would love to have a jvlc.dll come from the group
but understand the windows issues and resort to
building my own since nobody in the group seems to
have an environment to build it ;-)

I do try to help from time to time and provide
feedback and fixes.

Since I am providing a free service (I believe in free
education but perhaps that is why I am not getting
people knocking at my door?) not sure how that fits
under your model but I will look more into it.

Maybe Sun will come and use your java bindings for
thier Java Media Control they announced. It would be
great for you and Sun but not sure how your license
will be worked out.

Regards,
-Tony
