I mean abandoning FFmpeg j2k codec, which seems to be a less-featureful
copy of OpenJPEG,
and putting resources into fixing OpenJPEG issues and making it better.
Since OpenJPEG
has a much broader user community, this would help both FFmpeg users and
many others.

I'm not going to post any more on this topic - it is getting a bit boring
and seems to be raising
some people's blood pressure.

But, I think the code attribution issue needs to be dealt with by someone.

Bye,
Aaron
