Remove LICENSE_readme
It's completely outdated and just confusing, better if people are forced to look at the actual code in question than trusting this file.

Disclaimer: The GStreamer team makes a real effort to make sure that
|
||||
the information in this file is as up-to-date and accurate as possible.
|
||||
However, this file may contain errors and omissions. Some dependant
|
||||
libraries change their licensing from version-to-version and some of
|
||||
the libraries listed here as LGPL were under the GPL license in
|
||||
older releases. Distributions which include GStreamer are responsible
|
||||
for ensuring that plugins are used in accordance with licensing terms
|
||||
and other laws.
|
||||
|
||||
GStreamer is developed under the terms of the LGPL (see LICENSE file for details).
|
||||
Some of our plugins however rely on libraries which are available under other
|
||||
licenses. This means that if you are using an application which has a non-GPL
|
||||
compatible license, for instance a closed-source application with GStreamer
|
||||
you have to make sure not to use GPL linked or derived plugins. When using
|
||||
GPL linked plugins GStreamer is for all practical reasons under the GPL itself.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||

faad libfaad (http://www.audiocoding.com/)
|

faad's license depends on its major version :
|
||||
- for FAAD1 : it is LGPL
|
||||
- for FAAD2 : it is GPL
|
||||
look at these pages for more information on licenses :
|
||||
http://www.audiocoding.com/modules/wiki/?page=FAAD2
|
||||
http://www.audiocoding.com/modules/wiki/?page=FAAC
|
||||
|
||||
by default, GStreamer faad plugin would compile against FAAD2 if available.
|
||||
it falls back to FAAD1 if not.
