It would have been so much easier soon, we were working on OGG as well,
but they they replaced all of the BBCt(echnology - commercial outfit that
manages the BBC web site) management with clueless droids who only want
windows media and to make thier employees unhappy (+ lose lots of money),
so 50% of the entire team walked out. Unfortunately this was all the
people who care/are interested in OGG. Sorry, just being bitter :)
