A word of sanity.
If you're someone new to the ffmpeg-user list who's reading this thread and
frowning with concern at Reindl's behaviour, believe me, you're not alone. I've
never met him nor anyone who has met him, but I have occasionally met groups of
people who are familiar with his behaviour on this mailing list, and laughed
about our shared view of the situation.
Based on his behaviour on this list, Reindl is one of the top few most
outspokenly, deliberately impolite, unhelpful, unpleasant and unprofessional
people I've ever come across in my entire life, and that's saying something.
Even in the world of open source software, where we do find a few interesting
personalities, he's the standout. He's world famous for being viciously
unpleasant for no reason. Reindl Harald is a joke and a punchline, the very
epitome of an internet troll. He's been dominating this list with his utter
poison for at least fifteen years, to my certain knowledge.
It's not you. It's him.
We've tried to figure out why he does it. Maybe it's a language barrier. Maybe
it's some sort of psychological abnormality (in which case no disrespect, but
good grief, man, get help). In the end it's up to him and whoever has authority
on the mailing list, and the only surprise is that it's been allowed to go on
for so long.
