The Perl Toolchain Summit needs more sponsors. If your company depends on Perl, please support this very important event.

Changes for version 0.99

  • support has been added via OpenQuicktime. This means new depen- dencies on Inline::C and the OpenQuicktime C library itself. Apologies to non-linux users... someone code me a pure-perl module that follows the "FOO.pm" and "FOO.t" format, and I'll add it.
  • Once I'm sure all the problems are worked out, I'll bump the revision to 1.00.
  • Another major change is the license. I've moved the modules to the Aladding Free Public License, which is very explicit about prohibiting commercial use. Personal users, treat it like a GPL. Commercial users, contact me <allenday@ucla.edu> for a license.
  • Thanks to William Scott Hoge and Steven Lembark for their help with the Quicktime format.
