funny. i've been following the xiph svn tree for a while, to get the
latest theora stuff, and judging from the name, i always thought
postfish was some arcane brainchild of conrad parker's :-D never
compiled it, though...

huge kudos for the theora development, btw. last time i used it was lac
2009, and the quantum leap in quality and efficiency was really really
amazing. if only we could convince those industry dorks to make it a
mandatory part of html5...

(sticks a cardboard periscope on head, dances about and chants "i'm the
submarine patent threat")

best,
