The branch is already cut. Will need to be cherry-picked.

 I would aim for 1-3 weeks (when code and developers are ready)
 dont want to aim for a specific day, better pick a day when everything is 
 fine
 not too many distractions, ...

 Or is there something that favors us to be before a specific date ?

 It's never too late to make a release. If we do a release now, nothing's 
 stopping
 us from doing a 7.0 and getting back on track with releases every two 
 months or so,
 like the plan was.

 7.0 is likely to be a pretty big release, with YUVJ removal, (xHE) 
 AAC+fixes, D3D12 hwdec,
 Vulkan encode and Vulkan AV1, and VVC, and IAMF, and MLP work, so it's a 
 good idea to
 have a release before all this lands.

 I think the tree is in a pretty good state ATM, you should go ahead and 
 branch if you're
 comfortable with it as well.

 Let's aim for a release by Sunday next week. That should give everyone 
 enough time to
 backport fixes they want in.

Pushed the 2 patches.

Michael, do you think you can tag the release late tonight?
No one has said anything yet.
I'll write release notes for the website by then as well.

I was going to request Steven Liu's enhanced RTMP set but it looks
like those are already in the release/6.1 branch, so cheers.

Very well. Assuming with "explained" you mean that you gave your reasoning as 
well, instead of just that statement which was quoted. Because the lack of that 
is what Nicolas led to refuse your opinion.




Not being at where you say s.th. does not imply anything and is not an argument.


Refusing to attend the developer meetups and also refusing to be on one of the 
major discussion media and then complaining about not receiving information is 
a problem in an open source community.


Communication is the biggest problem indeed. In this case as well, I think you 
should have transported your reasoning back to this thread on the ML - you 
cannot blame anyone for not following live discussion like VDD or IRC. If you 
would have done so, your opinion could not have been waived away like Nicolas did.

p.s. sure, IRC is not really live, yet we expect to follow up on history only on 
the ML. Which is one reason why we say things like "as agreed on by X on IRC" in 
patch threads, for example.

Our last releases from our two major bracnhes, are a 5.1.3 (which is a LTS 
branch) and a 6.0.0.

Both of those have not had backports and releases of all the security issues, 
nor on the major regressions found (if any).

Also, if they had some commits for security reasons, we should have a release 
at least every 90 days (3 months), because this is the standard for the

And seeing the number of fuzzing fixes, this is likely important.

So, yes, I think having a 5.1.4 and 6.0.1 with the security fixes is of the 
utmost importance.


It was just that jb told me
"6.1 opportunity is gone.

Yes, we said we would make a new major version for January (which will slip in 
February, as usual :D).
So, doing a 6.1.0 now, while 7.0 is not far away, might be a lot of work and it 
might not worth it.
Notably since at the time of 7.0, there might be not enough new things to cut a 
release.

So I'm not against a release for 6.1 at all, but I believe focusing on minor 
releases for security and on 7.0 with the next major deprecations is more 
important.
If we can do all of those, and keep more or less the timing for 7.0, please be

Lynne made a list of the things that should (hopefully) make it to 7.0 
for early 2024 (E.g. YUVJ removal, D3D12 hwdec, Vulkan encode, VVC,

even with not a lot of things, the few it will get in these few months 
will be pretty big and appealing.


6.1 doesn't need to be supported for too long, but it's a good release 
to have as it will feature a year worth of development while being 6.0 
ABI compatible, for those distros that care.

Our last releases from our two major bracnhes, are a 5.1.3 (which is a LTS 
branch) and a 6.0.0.

Both of those have not had backports and releases of all the security issues, 
nor on the major regressions found (if any).

Also, if they had some commits for security reasons, we should have a release 
at least every 90 days (3 months), because this is the standard for the

And seeing the number of fuzzing fixes, this is likely important.

Yes, we said we would make a new major version for January (which will slip in 
February, as usual :D).
So, doing a 6.1.0 now, while 7.0 is not far away, might be a lot of work and it 
might not worth it.
Notably since at the time of 7.0, there might be not enough new things to cut a 
release.

So I'm not against a release for 6.1 at all, but I believe focusing on minor

important.
If we can do all of those, and keep more or less the timing for 7.0, please be

Because instead of doing the polite and normal thing which would be:
"jb, I did not hear your opinion, can you restate it?"
you said
"jb, I did not hear his opinion, he  should be ignored".

Refusing to attend the developer meetups and also refusing to be on one of the 
major discussion media and then complaining about not receiving information is 
a problem in an open source community.

Not really a reason, Sunday is just an optimistic date to aim for.
If there are no big fixes to backport to the branch, I think we can target it.

I would aim for 1-3 weeks (when code and developers are ready)
dont want to aim for a specific day, better pick a day when everything is fine
not too many distractions, ...

Or is there something that favors us to be before a specific date ?

Awnsering whenever a program halts or runs forever is
On a turing machine, in general impossible (turings halting problem).
On any real computer, always possible as a real computer has a finite number

It's never too late to make a release. If we do a release now, nothing's 
stopping
us from doing a 7.0 and getting back on track with releases every two months or 
so,
like the plan was.

7.0 is likely to be a pretty big release, with YUVJ removal, (xHE) AAC+fixes, 
D3D12 hwdec,
Vulkan encode and Vulkan AV1, and VVC, and IAMF, and MLP work, so it's a good 
idea to
have a release before all this lands.

I think the tree is in a pretty good state ATM, you should go ahead and branch 
if you're
comfortable with it as well.
Let's aim for a release by Sunday next week. That should give everyone enough 
time to
backport fixes they want in.

Point releases are in general up to you. 6.0 could have gotten one 
during the past few months, to be honest, but unless there were critical 
bugs there was probably no hurry.




anyway, ill try to make releases from all maintained branches,

and will branch 6.1 as soon as Lynne or others say everything is ready.


I'd branch a 6.1 with the tree in its current state (doesn't need to be 
right now, i mean API wise). 7.0 will feature a major bump and 
deprecated API removal, so it'd be nice to have one more release with 
the current sonames.
And IMO it's fine if we release 7.0 in January despite not having much 
development done post 6.1. But i want other people's opinions.


I forgot, which release was supposed to be LTS? 6.0 or 6.1?

Sorry if I haven't chimed in about this. From my point of view, the
things I need in 6.1 have landed. So I'm fine with 6.1 being released
now.

we can consider branching whenever theres a consensus to do so
People are always quick in saying what they want in / done before
releases/branching. But its rare that people later reply and say that an issue
was resolved.
This makes monitoring for what blockers remain painfull
i think for the next release we should automate this
because trac has a "Blocking" field and that could be set to 6.1
for example and then one can just query trac for all open tickets
that are blocking "6.1"
Which would make it MUCH easier to know what is blocking it and would
make it easier to know when all blockers are gone
ATM one has to go over multiple threads and then figure out what people
asked for to be done first and then find out if the things are still
not done.

That was not my intend
i had not intended to dismiss anyones concern
What i was trying to do with this 2nd part of the mail was to document
a subjective observation. The reason was simply _IF_ this observation
is somewhat correct, then awareness of this could help people next time.
As i stated i expect noone to change their position here. But maybe
next time we have a similar growing disagreement being aware of the
possible effects of emotional statements from fellow developers could
be helpfull.

thx, and ill try to end this debate in this thread, this minor comment
just felt it fits better here

Re: [FFmpeg-devel] [RFC] Release 6.1

2023-10-04 Thread Lynne
This discussion has drifted far away from any topic set upfront.

It's gotten to the point where there's no way for anyone outside
to join and give their own opinion, as it's not possible to know the
entire discussion that's happened up to this point.

Hence, spin this off in multiple threads. Maybe the one summarizing
a discussion will find it's pointless and we could focus on a smaller
set of things to worry about for 6.1's release.

These are largely unfalsifiable claims, so I don't see how they can
productively contribute to this discussion.

But dismissing people's concerns as "patriotic" or "religious" isn't

Technical arguments ?
Yes, several people had technical arguments, I remember Tomas and Remi and some
others. But at least subjectively i felt that the bulk of people where alot more
emotional than technical

But let me list a few observations, from memory
First objection was because processing is done in an external library.
Then it was found out that was wrong and actually processing is done in the new 
code
so the objection flipped and people demanded it to be moved into an external 
library.

If you object to pink and want blue and when you find out its actually blue you 
have
to be happy and become a supporter but what happened was the opposit, the 
objection
was simply adjusted to object to whatever was the case and demand whatever was 
not.

Ok so thats at least one developers "Technical objection" down here, maybe more
i dont know if anyone else expressed that same initial objection. but lets move 
on

In all cases we prefer not to have external dependancies, this is the Technical 
position of FFmpeg
no, there is no technical argument in this.
Also personal preferrances of people is not a technical argument. Noone 
explained why a
avdevice module with more external depandancies would be ok but a avdevice 
module with
fewer external depandancies was not. <-- This last sentance is a technical 
argument
I could go as far as call this a proof by contradiction.

If people are happy with a avdevice module and FFmpeg prefers fewer external 
dependancies
then my suggestion of first starting with a plain simple self contained 
avdevice/avformat
module, would have to be fine too.
We can always move this to an external library once there is a technical reason 
for that
like for example some other software wants to use it

About the attack/rallying/compaign stuff. Ill keep it very brief as its not 
useful i think.
Also this is my own personal and subjective view. In fact the whole mail is
There was alot of (negative) emotion from 1-2 people about SDR. This emotion 
was what spread
slash rallied other developers. That came before any technical arguments.
Now people have picked their flag and march to war.

Everyone will deny it, same as every patriot will fight to the death for the 
colors of
the flag of the country and religion they where born into.

My claim, sorry to be stubborn, is that had this started a slight bit different 
there
would be little opposition to SDR. Iam not denying that now there are several 
people
against it.

Arguments cannot "ask for separate library". "They" were explicitly "people", 
specifically people asking for a separate library.

Later on:

[after I had indeed argued the opposite]

Feel free to call me captain obvious: "nobody" is a negative pronoun for 
people, not for abstract concepts such as arguments, for which the pronoun 
would be "nothing".

But hey, I shall not reproduce Paul's mistake that got him admonished by JB.

If this were a feature that would be somehow automatically enabled or highly 
visible, that would make sense. But not only is it no such thing, it requires 
special hardware.

With that noted, for any reasonable understanding of "popularity", it would be 
less popular. That is the point. People who want to do SDR will be burdened 
with the other 99% of FFmpeg that they don't need for SDR. And that's if they 
find out that FFmpeg can actually do SDR - but in all likelihood, they 
wouldn't, because of the brand recognition of FFmpeg. Instead, they'd end up 
with some SDR-specific projects.

That's why, if Michael does not want to join an existing SDR project, he is 
much better off making a new one, than bundling in FFmpeg.

> Nobody honest would seriously try to argue the opposite.

I believe that you have high IQ, and good English skill, enough that you 
should be able to more or less figure out what was noted above and up-thread.

And this puts me in a bit of a conundrum. See, if you did figure that much out, 
then you would be willfully committing defamation against me, by calling me 
dishonest. I suppose that I am going to have to assume that you are somehow 
temporarily incapacitated.

Stop moving the goalposts, stop wasting everybody's time by turning

"We understand that very well. Once again, it is you who do not understand 
something: your BELIEF tha SDR does beling in FFmpeg is nothing more than 
that, a belief, an opinion, and it weighs" very little in the face of repeated 
technical arguments by several members of the development community as well as 
common sense.

> it weighs nothing in front of the argument that some users want it.

Literally ABSOLUTELY ZERO *users* said that they wanted it, except for Michael 
himself. Other people (including you) did say that they wanted it, yes, but 
none of them were users or even potential users of SDR. Some even explicitly 
said that (although it sounded cool) they would not use it.

So you fail at logical argumentation again.

He said that he did not want to join an existing SDR project. That's 
completely orthogonal.

And in any case, this is one of several technical argument. You cannot 
"disprove" it with the subjective opinions and authority fallacies.

Err, it is very much an issue w.r.t. "catching on".

You even left the original quote up there. This makes your highly 
intellectually dishonest attempt at distorting my statements all the more 
blatant.

> > - it only works on some limited set of OSes (if not only Linux),

Same thing.

I was not the one to start this drama (on either side of the argument), and 
there have been plenty more people on my side than yours.  I am indeed part of 
the problem in a sense. Though if I follow that logic, you are a 
proportionally bigger part of the problem, FWIW.

Now you could argue that my argument si a self-realising prophecy. But 
regardless of who is to blame, my argument holds: the drame will continue 
(with or without me, by the way) unless Michael compromises and takes SDR out 
of FFmpeg.git and FFmpeg-devel.

Probably indeed like a lot of features, who failed to catch on and will 
continue to fail to catch on. My point exactly!

I think that I made it clear that this was about how/why SDR will not be 
*popular* inside FFmpeg.

Maybe those are bottom of the drawer arguments against SDR in FFmpeg. That 
does not exactly matter in this context, since that is not what they were 
about.

Also that's an ad hominem attack, which violates the CC.

It reach more popular included in FFmpeg than if users have to download

What you are describing here is your “does not belong”.

“Fit nicely together” means it allows to do things that were not
possible previously or required more work and were more fragile
(pipelines and shell scripts). It is a technical argument.

Just being feature-rich does not make it popular. I never said anything about 
being or not being feature-rich at that point in time. But congratulations on 
disproving a point that nobody made anyway.

Sure and that is in fact one way to use a software library. There is even a 
name for that practice nowadays: vendoring. Thanks for making my point.

> Too bad your attempt at disproving my point just proves it.

Just providing some historical facts (that I don't challenge) does not 
disprove my point. You pretty much confirmed my point actually.

And besides, one example (FFmpeg) does not prove a general rule, such as you 
up-thread postulate that started-as-library software is never popular.

Indeed, anybody who knows open-source in general knows that there are plenty 
of libraries that are popular. In fact, there are far more popular libraries 
than popular applications in terms of user base, and often in terms of 
development activity and community strength. (And I don't count libraries with 
reference command line tools as applications, otherwise everything is an 
application and your implied dichotomy would not make sense to begin with.)

I neither needed nor sought new ground here. I just disprove your postulate, 
not that I expect you to be able to grasp the possibility of such occurrence, 
in light of your past and present show of self-assurance (to put it politely).

It should be blatantly obvious to anybody with a modicum of modesty that "fit 
nicely together" is intrinsically a very subjective value judgement, not a 
technical argument in favor or disfavor of anything.

Fortunately, I know the history of our projects better than you:

First, FFmpeg was already a feature-rich self-contained program when
MPlayer started using it.

Second, MPlayer did not start using it FFmpeg as a library, it started —
and still does in part — using it as embedded code.

Too bad your attempt at disproving my point just proves it.

We understand that very well. Once again, it is you who do not

nothing more than that, a belief, an opinion, and it weighs nothing in

Strange, I thought FFmpeg really became popular as a back-end library for 
mplayer, before it was picked up by all other OSS multimedia at the time 
(gstreamer, VLC, Xine, etc.).

Force-feeding the SDR code to all FFmpeg packagers is not going to make it 
popular. Most of them will just disable it, especially if it brings new 
dependencies and/or doesn't work on the popular proprietary platforms.

FWIW, Fabrice Bellard didn't bundle all his initially hobby projects together. 
Several of them became popular.

To the contrary, I would much rather Michael uses his free time on his 
hobbies, including SDR-outside-FFmpeg. He can stick to spending his "time on 
boring things" if/when he gets paid.

That will add incentives for big tech corps to actually fund FFmpeg. This 
community, and presumably Michael in particular, are way too good at doing 
those "boring things" for free.

Like no, seriously. If you really want to generic support for AM and FM RX in 
FFmpeg, then you should use implement frontends for the already *existing* HAL 
(that would be V4L radio and ALSA on Linux), or perhaps, write a new user-
space HAL library that would accomodate both hardware radio RX devices and 
SDR.

In fact, the SDR code has quite a number of impediments that all but guarantee 
that it will not "catch on" in FFmpeg:
- it requires niche hardware,
- it only works on some limited set of OSes (if not only Linux),
- it will be subject to all the FFmpeg processes and drama,
- it will be obscured by FFmpeg's existing own fame, remaining an obscure 
feature set that hardly anybody outside FFmpeg-devel knows about.

You are doing your own work a disservice by pushing it in FFmpeg, IMO.

Didn't dav1d start as a library? (Or maybe it's not very successful by your

And they are being dishonest in that. Nothing successful starts as a
library, they start small and grow, and get turned into libraries once
multiple projects can use them.

Demanding you make a separate library and a separate project is a
hypocritical ploy to have you spend your time on boring things like
build system and packaging, so that you lose interest in SDR and go back
to doing useful things for them, like fixing fuzzing bugs and
backporting the fixes.

You will NOT make everyone happy. Some people here have made absolutely
clear they will never be happy with your SDR code and will not rest
until they have killed it.

Acknowledge it: if you cannot make them happy, do not waste effort
trying, just accept you will be making them unhappy as unavoidable, and
make the rest of us — developers who would like to have fun with FFmpeg
again and users who would like to use the code — very happy.

And you can repeat it as often as you want, iam not interrested.
Why do you not understand this ?
my interrest is/was specific to FFmpeg gaining SDR support
its that and ONLY that

Ive earlier this year written some code to monitor liquidations in AAVE
why? for fun, it was a excercise for solidity & python. It was not
usefull for anything really, only the miners can do liquidations profitably
I guess i should use my blog more to write about what iam doing ...
I didnt touch blockchain related coding after that IIRC

Then i looked into security issues in a random number generator of a hw
password manager.

Then i looked at SDR and wrote the AM/FM demodulation. It added a feature
that was and is IMO usefull to FFmpeg and libavdevice users.
(we know the rest ...)
Iam happy to maintain this code, Iam happy to improve and extend it
if it has users (which requires this to be in a release used by people
at some point)

I have no interrest and no time to do other things in SDR outside the
FFmpeg codebase. And if FFmpeg doesnt want it, ill put it in a personal
fork or whatever we call it.

after this ive spend some time implementing a basic transformer based NN
(this was bascially just an excercise so nothing to show).

There are many things i find interresting. (also non programming things like
chemistry, biology and so on but i totally lack the time for these)
In the past it was possible to align my random interrest with FFmpeg.
Like for example a mandelbrot fractal zoom filter.
People did not ask that to be put in a seperate general purpose fractal
library.
With SDR they do ask for a seperate library. maybe we can organize the
existing code to make everyone happy. Maybe this will be a personal fork,
maybe it will grow and we will have a FFmpeg with many of my and other
peoples random projects. I dont know
But i dont feel drawn to any SDR projects, i hope above mail explains
better my point. I have too many interrests :)

thx

This is why I have suggested many times that you should get involved in
actual SDR projects. For example the FreeDV people have a spinoff
project called FreeDATA (https://freedata.app/  which is all about
sending data (including IP packets) over difficult channels. There is
plenty of DSP work to be done in these projects. If you also get an

We have not read the same discussion. The objections to SDR start and
end at “it does not belong in FFmpeg”, which is not a technical
objection but an aesthetic one.

Furthermore, the way these objections were stated made it quite obvious
the motivation behind them was that they wanted Michael to spend his
time on more useful tasks. More useful for them, implicitly. Again, that
is not technical, that is egoistical.

Last, there have been some suggestions or demands, technical indeed,
that looked like openings for compromise. But the same people who made
them made it clear in other parts of the discussion they had no
intention of meeting anybody on any kind of middle ground. Given the
disingenuousness of these demands, I think Michael is entitled to feel a
little paranoid.

You keep framing this as some kind of a personal campaign against you.
It is not. From my perspective, the objections to SDR have been largely
technical, and most of the "heat" comes from your refusal to accept that
many active developers are against it.

I see zero indication of any of the above.

1) Nobody is rallying anyone against SDR. My objections to it are
   entirely my own. Paul is also against it, and nobody is able to
   make him do anything, as far as I can tell.
   What evidence do you see that anyone's opinion on this question has
   been "organized" or otherwise manipulated?

2) Nobody is attacking Fabrice in any way. Ronald raised the (in my view
   entirely reasonable) observation that someone who has had almost no
   involvement with the project since 2003 should not have the ultimate
   veto power over it. That is not in any way a personal attack, and is
   also entirely unrelated to this.

3) Nobody is attacking you. Disagreeing about technical questions is NOT
   a personal attack.

I really wish you would drop the drama, it is entirely unnecessary.
Nobody wants you to resign from anything, people (including me) merely
want you to stop trying to force your opinions on the rest of the

We can agree on this, if we consider that the opinion on whether it is
ready of people who have made it clear they will never consider it
“ready” is to be disregarded, just as much as somebody who says “nak” to
a patch without reasons.

SDR **will be** big. SDR **will need** to have its own versatile and
extensible API.

But the way to get there is to start small. First make it a module, with
a very simple API to the rest. Then, as it grows, it acquires utility
functions: an internal API that we can change as we discover what it
needs. And progressively the API stabilizes and becomes good.

Nothing successful starts as a library. Suggesting that a project starts
as a library is either an expression of incompetence or a dishonest
attempt at killing it.

No, it was not abuse of power per se. That was a bit strong from Anton's

using it as argument to upstream the code bothered some people.




Should i ask the counter-question ?
are the developers who have less than 10 commits since 2017 abusing something

We don't want you to resign anything. We want a proper discussion in how

not ready for upstream is not a good idea. Best case scenario we end up 
with a period of having to change things around as they were made public 
in a release and thus part of the API, which is harder to maintain and 
migrate from, and worst case scenario we end up with something that 
doesn't get more development because it was limited from the get go.


SDR is big, so its API needs to be designed carefully and in an 
extensible way.
libavradio must absolutely not be libavdevice redux, and it must have

Iam not claimining anything is comparable.

Iam just asking that everyone is posting tweets for review. Same as thilo
long ago suggested

It is reasonable that the whole community can review public statements
that are made in the name of the project

This example here shows how easily this can go wrong (even if maybe you
never made a comparable tweet)

Thanks

ok
I wrote a SDR input device for free, wanted to give it to the users
as i believed it was a cool and usefull feature

i tried to argue for it, i tried to promote it.
And as the person doing all releases of FFmpeg since a very long time
i thought yeah we will be able to resolve the disagreements and get it
in 6.1 with everyone geing happy.
I was wrong, i announced this before i actually got people to agree yes
I still belive if people where not so "excited" on this whole and if it
was just a technical question we could get SDR in 6.1 with everyone
agreeing.
But now heres a man to be burned at the stake, and thats more important.

abuse of power ?
If its abuse of power to risk my position in FFmpeg to try to get users a 
feature
i belive in they would like and find cool then yes i abused my power.

Should i ask the counter-question ?
are the developers who have less than 10 commits since 2017 abusing something
by organizing and rallying the people against SDR, against the domain owner
and against me ?

Without that, i do belive we could have gotten SDR with everyone being happy
in 6.1

Anyway, i appologize for announcing SDR in 6.1. I was too much in love with
SDR and how cool it would be ...

I guess there will be votes to remove me from everything.
But dont fear, i will not abuse anything, i will resign from everything that
a correct vote asks me to resign from.

Thx

I have been pretty silent on list, but as one of the people who has
access to the Twitter account as a delegate (but who was locked out
at the time of the tweet), it offensive to me on a personal level to
insnuate that it is at all comparable to any tweet (few though they

This is disingenuous sophistry, and honestly I find it insulting that
you expect people to swallow it.

You made the tweet in question long after it was clear that the feature
is controversial. Then you tried to use it as an argument in favor of
pushing SDR to master. In other words, you used the fact that you have
Twitter posting rights to promote your opinion over that of other
developers. If that is not abuse of power then I don't know what is.

Announcing feature are going to be present in a release in a tweet
that the community has no consensus on is not the same as making
general tweets about VDD, FFmpeg etc.

This statement is a little misleading, i think

Iam part of the community, i would think and for 99% of the tweets made
on the official twitter account i have never been asked or even had a
chance to comment before they where made. So what you suggest here is
"the correct way", has never been applied.

Thilo raised this very same issue already also. The tweets should all be
reviewed. And i do not disagree.

what ?

There are 633 open issues in coverity, every FFmpeg developer can work on.
i remember bringing this number down years ago to something rather small but now
the statistics dwarf that with the upward trend ...

if you mean oss-fuzz, there are 18 tickets public about FFmpeg, anyone can work 
on these
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/oss-fuzz/issues/list?q=ffmpeg

and the ffmpeg ossfuzz tickets, go to
ffmpeg-security, 3 people from google, 1 from mozilla, jb
and ffmpeg-security is me, reimar, ce, andreas cadhalpun, ubitux, rodger combs

so thats not just me
and a quick count, i think i have 32 open ossfuzz issues in my inbox,
with the 18 subtracted more are public with noone caring about.
if we assume i fix 5 a day, what is that, 4 days of work, to fix the ones that 
are
not public. (that doesnt count ossfuzz hiding 12 issues in 62164 but yeah these 
ive
already posted fixes for i think)

Also theres our bug tracker and just the normal compiler warnings
if you want to work on this sort of thing

where are the developers who want to work on something above but do not have
access ?

the only other issue i remember on ffmpeg-security thats not spam and not 
ossfuzz
is a XSS issue in the fate server which i believe nicolas is working on.
If someone is interrested in working on the fate server code, please come forth
the code is in need for a maintainer outside this issue. I just had asked 
nicolas
about it because i did not know anyone else who knows perl and be willing
to help look into a not entirely trivial (for me) issue in fate server

What accumulating work? The SDR work for certainly nobody else wants to
pick, except maybe Peter.
If you mean real FFmpeg work, than by all means give access to services
only you have to other
interesting parties, like security related reports and others.

Right, thats a valid question
when i wrote the SDR code it seemed to me that including it in 6.1 was
very simple. But as then some people tried to block SDR by any means
(blocking patches randomly, asking for moving it into a seperate libraray
 while not replying to any questions about that libraray and so on)
that made libavradio now have much more strings attached
then the original simple self contained input device
secondary, i lost the will to really work on FFmpeg around the time
of these attacks, so even without SDR i had limited motivation
and then more things that should be in 6.1 accumulated and summer and
good waether ...
And noone else took up the accumulating work either ...

Now the SDR + blockings is solved by not including any SDR that the
community doesnt like in 6.1 but instead me simply making a seperate
release with SDR, or so i thought. It seems given the replies I seem
to have touched some nerve here too

The idea was really just, that i said ill include SDR and i want to
keep this word so i want our users to have that 6.1 with SDR that i
promised and also have everyone happy about 6.1 and the long term
design of the SDR code.
I have some more comments about the seperate libraray and SDR but
thats better in a seperate mail in the future.

Thanks

How is libavradio related to the release?

I'd like to have
'[PATCH 21/22] fftools/ffmpeg: rework -enc_time_base handling'
(<20230707094847.25324-21-an...@khirnov.net>), which fixes #10393,
in the release.

I was hoping to see the enhanced RTMP/FLV stuff merged by now... And
maybe the Intel person finally posting their AV1 VA-API patches...

I think we should release early and often. also 7.0 would be a
major version bump, so the 6.1 API/ABI doesnt matter.
And i have not seen anyone working on changing the API ...

It's still quite a new library, its API might change, I think we
should release 6.1 first, then release libavradio, so the next
FFmpeg release has a stable target API-wise to use.

It's fine if you don't have time in the next few days, I have to remove
the old FFT code, which means finishing my DCT/DST lavu/tx patch.

libavradio needs testing, at least build testing.
all parts of git master are tested automatically by our user base
but anything in seperate repositories might receive less testing
so we should encourage people to test these seperate repositories
for the release

also note iam quite busy ATM, its not the best time for me to
do 6.1, so "in a few days" is a bit too optimistic i think

thx

[FFmpeg-devel] [RFC] Release 6.1

2023-07-06 Thread Lynne
It's been a while since we've had a release, and we've had
a lot of new features in.
We did say we would make releases more often, and I think
it's about time we have a new release.

Anything anyone wants to have merged or should we branch
off 6.1 in a few days?
