And these idiots working on the Linux kernel, why do they waste their time when Windows and MacOS are excellent for everybody? And the Vim team, do they not know that LibreOffice can do everything better? Why bother maintaining i3 and Fvwm when Gnome is so much better? Why develop Perl modules? Python for everybody!

This is very dishonest. Maintaining a fork only causes headaches to the people who do it, and you have made amply clear that would not be you. In fact, quite the opposite, you were one the loudest demanding that one of our most talented hacker waste his time on maintaining a separate build system instead of doing creative and useful work. I say: let us merge this fork that should never have been separate, for the convenience of Michael and of potential users. Then let us reaffirm that FFmpeg is a place for hackers to be creative in the general field of multimedia, the place to foster new ideas, new solutions, new ways of writing efficient code, rather than a wrapper around other libraries and obsolescent native code for the convenience of other projects and commercial companies. -- Nicolas George
