+Theora is Xiph.Org's first publicly released video codec, intended
+for use within the Foundation's Ogg multimedia streaming system.
+Theora is derived directly from On2's VP3 codec; Currently the
+encoders are nearly identical, but Theora will make use of new
+features supported by the decoder to improve over what is
+is possible with VP3.
