<p>Beyond that, sometimes the GNU project takes a strong stand against a

-
- <p>For example, the GIF file format is covered by the LZW software patent
-in the USA. A patent holder has threatened lawsuits against not only
-developers of software to produce GIFs, but even web sites that
-contain them.
-
- <p>For this reason, you should not include GIFs in the web pages for your

-a GNU package to support displaying GIFs which will come into play if
-a user asks it to operate on one. However, it is essential to provide

-to use GIF format, and that it must not do. More about our stand on

+files, and that equal or better support for other image formats such
+as PNG and JPEG was crucial. (These other formats remain superior, so
+there is still no particular reason to use GIF's.)
<p>Software patents are not the only matter for ethical concern. A GNU
