patch against the dist10 ISO demonstration source, and thus was incapable of
producing an mp3 stream or even being compiled by itself. But in May 2000, the
last remnants of the ISO source code were replaced, and now LAME is the source
code for a fully LGPL'd MP3 encoder, with speed and quality to rival all
commercial competitors.
