Dear Jean-Baptiste and DVDnav developers, We applaud your efforts in contributing to libdvdnav. Having libdvdnav's code in git and having a new very active developer is a big help to the project.
We at Debian would happily use the libdvdnav code from git as the base of our packages, but from the linked thread [1] it seems there is no established consensus regarding the state of the VideoLAN-hosted repository. I would like to ask all of you (developers contributing either to the original svn and the new git repositories) to decide if the repository at git.videolan.org/libdvdnav.git is a continuation of libdvdnav's development or not. This is needed to prevent the fragmentation of development which would unnecessarily complicate life for projects using libdvdnav. I'm somewhat biased towards migrating libdvdnav to git in this step and continuing development in VLC's repo since it is ready and moving to git is probably unavoidable. Either way I would be glad to see a public announcement on dvdnav-discuss clarifying the situation.
