Do you? You keep implying in your emails that you are the authority on lavfi, but I see no objective support for this claim. MAINTAINERS only lists you as the maintainer for graphdump.c and two filters. And taken e.g. by the number of commits touching libavfilter/, mine is similar to yours, and both are far behind other people. > > - the most prolific lavfi contributor recently (Paul) has no objections > > to this patch > > - the second most prolific lavfi contributor recently (Andreas) told me > > on IRC he planned to write this same patch himself > > It is not a matter of volume, it is a matter of complexity.

Ah yes, preventing one person from enforcing his opinion over those of multiple other people is "authoritarianism". I don't think that word means what you think it means. So take your pick - either stop opposing this patch or we have a vote over it and see what other people think. -- Anton Khirnov _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
