Isn't there a nonprofit behind VLC? I was mostly wondering what what their focus is on. Is their focus primarily licensing issues?

They have a nonprofit, but it looks like they don't use it to pay developers. I didn't see any financials, so I don't know whether they just don't have enough money to pay developers or they have consciously decided not to (see http://wiki.mako.cc/Crowding_out ).
