Description
Version increment to 3.97
http://sourceforge.net/projects/lame
(Note: This is a personal reflection and nothing to do with BLFS):
I hate Sourceforge. Every single page takes an hour to load and it contains nothing but a bunch of ads, and if you can make your way through them, it is just plain hard to navigate, and slow as hell. Did I mention I hate Sourceforge?
However, I suppose there's something to be said about a hosting network that allows open source projects to breed (and grow) for free. Though, did I mention, that I hate navigating those damn pages because they take forever to load. You must have great patience to view Sourceforge pages.
Bottom line is: I hate Sourceforge. And so many multimedia apps use it, so you won't see many updates to the BLFS Trac about multimedia, because it means navigating these horrific spam/ad pages.
LAME is an exception, as it is an important project.
Funny rant in the original ticket submission. I agree with it. Still.
