I would very gladly cooperate with you on such matters and make your life easier where possible. But what do we get for producing 80% of the changes going into FFmpeg? We get to hear "sod off" when we ask for details on a possibly security-relevant commit. On top of that we get a foul-mooded Baptiste barging into our IRC channel complaining that we are about to merge a decoder that he released as LGPL with FFmbc into Libav. All that while FFmpeg merges our changes every day[1]. So as long as this kind of behavior continues, please don't expect us to go out of our way to simplify cooperation. I'm disheartened to see you end up on the receiving end of reactions to behavior that you have absolutely no part in. But you will have to accept that we will not go out of our way to make lifting our work easier. Sorry. Diego [1] FFmpeg is most certainly entitled to merge our work. I'm not complaining about the merging done by FFmpeg, I'm complaining about the complaints from Baptiste. _______________________________________________ libav-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.libav.org/mailman/listinfo/libav-devel
