Excuse me, I don't understand the alleged problem with licensing. AFAIK, we need
the author's permission to use the code, not to use the format. Unless there are
 patents on it.

So the question is: are there patents on the ape FORMAT? If not, why are you
talking about license problem for the gstreamer plugin?
