So had the proposal been "hey, let's replace libav with ffmpeg", would you
vote "yes" ? Only one library to maintain and review, and it happens to
have good upstream support And replacing libav with ffmpeg is easy and the
ffmpeg maintainer is committed to help port reverse dependencies. Looks
good to me. Maybe Andreas should have made a not-so-polite proposal?
