FLAC stands for Free Lossless Audio Codec. Grossly oversimplified, FLAC is similar to MP3, but lossless. The FLAC project consists of:
</P>
<P>
<UL>
<LI>the stream format</LI>
<LI><B><TT>libFLAC</TT></B>, which implements reference encoders and decoders</LI>
<LI><B><TT>flac</TT></B>, a command-line wrapper around libFLAC to encode and decode .flac files</LI>
<LI>input plugins for various music players (Winamp, XMMS, and more in the works)</LI>
</UL>
</P>
<P>
"Free" means that the specification of the stream format is in the public domain (the FLAC project reserves the right to set the FLAC specification and certify compliance), and that neither the FLAC format nor any of the implemented encoding/decoding methods are covered by any patent. It also means that the source for libFLAC is available under the <A HREF="http://www.opensource.org/licenses/lgpl-license.html">LGPL</A> and the sources for flac and the plugins are available under the <A HREF="http://www.opensource.org/licenses/gpl-license.html">GPL</A>.
</P>
<P>
FLAC compiles on many platforms: most Unixes (Linux, *BSD, Solaris, OS X), Windows, and OS/2. There are build systems for autoconf/automake, MSVC, Watcom C, and Project Builder.
</P>
<P>

<P>
I developed FLAC because no audio compression format I could find did everything I needed. Since I couldn't mash them all together (most are closed-source), I solidified all my requirements (now the FLAC <A HREF="goals.html">goals</A>) and wrote the first implementation. I intended to open-source it from the beginning for two reasons: 1) so that people who knew more about audio compression than me could help improve it; and 2) I wanted to give something back to the OS community, whose huge body of work I rely on so much.
</P>
<P>
So I started the FLAC project on SourceForge as soon as I had a relatively complete first implementation. Now I'm the maintainer of the FLAC project. You can get in touch with me about it through the <A HREF="http://sourceforge.net/mail/?group_id=13478">mailing list</A> or <A HREF="mailto:jcoalson@users.sourceforge.net">directly</A>
