+<PRE>2012/10/29 Christiaan Welvaart &lt;<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">cjw at daneel.dyndns.org</A>&gt;:
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> The problem is the following:
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> 1. faac cannot go into main (see 2 &amp; 3)
+</I>&gt;<i> 2. faac cannot go into tainted (it is not free software)
+</I>&gt;<i> 3. faac cannot go into nonfree (patented in some countries)
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> so we only have 2 options:
+</I>&gt;<i> A. ban faac and use the AAC encoder(s) we already have in mageia
+</I>&gt;<i> or another one that can go into tainted
+</I>&gt;<i> B. add a special repository for faac
+</I>
+Looking at the history if the discussion (and especially this thread),
+it seems that a third option was clearly stated and approved by a few
+contributors:
+
+C. Change the definition of the Tainted repository to open it to
+non-free software.
+
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I prefer option A and I patched a gstreamer based video encoding app to use
+</I>&gt;<i> vo-aacenc instead of faac a while ago.
+</I>&gt;<i>
