Re: [FFmpeg-devel] Help with writing an RMS-LMS decoder
Hi, I was of the impression that even though the time for submitting patches is running out, any propective OPW applicant could still continue working on her tasks even after the application period is over right up to the selections are announced for the OPW? I think this is correct. And of course, any contributions within the OPW or not are very welcome! -Thilo ___ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel

I can still implement the RLS-LMS decoder I'm usually not in IRC - I cannot stay there during my every day job and I can't plan my free time as much as I want to. So mail is my preferred channel of communication. As already mentioned, you're welcome to work on the decoder aka your qualification task. And I think the deadline tomorrow does not hurt if you've met the OPW requirements already - which would be to the best of my knowledge to have submitted a formal application to OPW.

Well, she can still do that, just not within the OPW program (since time is obviously running out). I believe most here would agree with helping new contributors even outside of programs like OPW or GSoC. ___ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel
