I certainly hope that Dirac makes it. While I haven't yet done any comparisons, I heard that
it's technically more advanced and, well, better codec than Theora (probably even with recent
optimisations). It would be really bad if it missed the boat and would not be considered as
"one format that all content producers can be sure will be available for Firefox".
