Comment on VP8 and H.264 to both become mandatory for WebRTCparent

Comments

He meant patent-free codecs, not open codecs. i.e. Vorbis, FLAC, Opus, Theora, VP8.

Yes, free codecs probably would be a better term. Open here refers not just to the availability of open source tools, but them being open for entry for any participant (including for example projects and individuals who can't pay any license fees).
