[M4IF Discuss] sniff sniff

MPEGLA acts as an administrator of the license holders.
Many of these are M4IF members, and so is MPEGLA. 
While M4IF cannot determine licensing in any way, it can 
of course convey, to the licensors and MPEGLA, the opinion of 
its members and of potential MPEG-4 users beyond its membership.
This is precisely why this discussion list was created.
I am sure licensors are willing to listen to comments about the
announced licensing scheme.

It would be good for this discussion if you could explain why.
