Hi, When I was reading the past email/conversation, I remembered that I got an impression that Outreachy was regarded as more like a "contractor" in the way Outreachy was mentioned. (we want to get xyz done but we have to pay x amount of money to them.) However, I looked through the email in the past and I couldn't find the record of it. (It looks all reasonable to me.) So I must have been mistaken. Please forget about what I said and I am sorry about the confusion. > > _______________________________________________ > ffmpeg-devel mailing list > ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org > http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel
