I would like this kind of technology to succeed, but GPL is way too restrictive (even v3) to be used by for-profit entities. If they don't use it, FLIF will be always considered as niche for GPL only software. \r\n\r\nFor FLIF to be considered and accepted on say browsers, standard photographic manipulation software, transcoders, etc it needs to be available in a friendlier license. \r\n\r\nKeep up the great work.
