Hmm, can anybody provide more information about the legal stuff?
AFAIK jpeg6b is included in so many programs that I doubt that there
are any problems.
I believe there are some advanced features of recent versions of JPEG
which are still patented, but that jpeg-6b and the "usual" jpeg support
is fine.
The GIF patents did indeed expire
(http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/gif.html) but I agree with you that there
is no reason to suddenly start supporting it.
