Would there then, be the possibility of having another binary package
built from the libvorbis sources producing, say, libvorbis-aotuv, for
those that would prefer that as the encoder of choice?
This would, indeed, be a quite nice addition to the package, especially
for those that want to encode voice (I use it to encode my classes and,
at quality -2, it gives superb crispness, which is not achieved by the
reference encoder at level -1 or even 0).
Some words like "Caution! This package contains an experimental patch"
in the description of the binary package would be sufficient, I guess.
Please let me know what you think.

Sorry. I am not used to bazaar. I thought that it was just like, say,
websvn, where you can browse the sources without having to use a
specific tool. But it was nice to learn this behavior, as this is my
first contact with bazaar. :-)
Thanks, Rogério Brito.
