[M4IF Discuss] A simple table to make sense of the MPEG-4 vis ual profiles

[Rob Koenen]

Thanks Robert.
This is useful.
There is definitively a need for more explanation and insight.
We will add the link to the patent info page:
http://www.m4if.org/patents/
Of course the definitive reference is the license itself, and
I hope we will be provided with similar information by the 
licensors, as the terms surely aren't as transparent as they
are for MPEG-2.
Best,
Rob
