x264 bounties: find these people!
We're almost done preparing to dual-license x264: what a mess this has been! We've gotten almost all the rights we need, including an agreement with Avail Media, x264's biggest corporate backer.
The really really short version: this will allow companies to license x264 to use in commercial products where the GPL would be prohibitive. x264 will of course remain free; the commercial version will be the same program, just under a different license. Of course, the companies will still be required to contribute back their improvements This leaves us with just three people left who I have been unable to contact: philj [AT] csufresno [DOT] edu imcold [AT] centrum [DOT] sk noboru.asai [AT] gmail [DOT] com This means finding newer emails, poking them with sharp sticks, etc. I will give a $100 reward via Paypal to anyone whose information results in finding one of these people and getting their approval. One reward per person found, so up to $300 total. And do keep in mind, if you are one of these people... you can still claim the reward for finding yourself
