  5 months ago. This is my first time seeing this item.

    My point is not that it shouldn't be there again, it's that some potentially interesting stuffs have already been discussed, so the previous thread is probably worth a look too.

      You should put that into your first post :) Most of the time I see post like this meaning it was a double post.

        My preferred format is: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10317790 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10317790 (1254 points, 157 days ago, 366 comments) Because it answer most of the common questions about a resubmission: Did it get a lot of exposure? Was it a long time ago? Did it have an interesting discussion that I should read? The number of comments actually doesn't show if the discussion was interesting of a flamewar. So I sometimes cherrypick some of the most interesting comments and repost a snippet. (In this case, I think the most important comments are: - The relation between the progressive and an extension for lossy mode - The advantages and problems of the (L)GPLv3 licence But each of them deserve it's own thread here.)
