i urge you to take act against the exclusion of Ogg/Vorbis/Theora
> audio/video streaming technology from the HTML-5 specification: this
> exclusion will damage the efficiency of the world wide web in the
> coming years by reducing the available protocols and codecs to the few
> uncompatible and proprietary ones sold by business companies; at
> present time it is clear that Nokia is being responsible of this
> outrageous disaster as it untruly referred to Ogg as «proprietary
> technology» addressing the W3C board on HTML5

> we are witnessing the manipulation of what it should be a clean
> evolution path for the biggest technological platform we all share.
