libebml is a library for reading and writing files with the Extensible 
Binary Meta Language, a binary pendant to XML. It is a dependency of 
mkvtoolnix.

libebml is present in most Linux distros [1]. It's also present in 
Cygwin Ports, albeit at an earlier version, so Yaakov should have first 
refusal at maintaining this. However, mkvtoolnix needs to be built 
against a very specific version of libebml, so it makes sense for the 
same person to maintain both packages.
