People change jobs, work focus changes etc etc. A good example of this is libyami. Even more so for EVC which has had very limited uptake. Regards, Kieran Kunhya Dear Kieran, While I appreciate your concerns, I must point out that the issues you mentioned regarding the maintenance of third-party libraries are not limited to corporate contributors. People change jobs and their focus may change, but this is not exclusive to those working for corporations. Furthermore, it is not necessarily the case that someone who has maintained a particular part of code in a project like FFmpeg will abruptly cease doing so upon changing jobs. I believe it's important to consider each individual's level of commitment to a project, rather than making assumptions based on generalizations. It's also worth noting that while there may have been issues with maintaining patches to certain third-party libraries in the past, it doesn't mean that it will be each and every time.
