    Vote for Google to liberate VP8 codec for YouTube and more!

    So, Google has opened up yet another YouTube vote page, and we're here to bomb it once again!

    On behalf of free culture and free software, here we go =]

    I was under the impression that VP8 was going Open Source already...

    Nothing official, keeping the pressure on, plus the additional suggestion of handing it over to Xiph which would be even better if they're liberating it anyways. There's also the copyleft licenses idea
