Not because thats a great thing to do but because it was needed also iam not doing the work by choice but because noone else volunteered, i would very much prefer if someone who actually has experience with this kind of thing to do the work.

In that sense if someone wants to work on moving some of our services to full virtualization like qemu/kvm or even just LXC, please mail root for this to be discussed or if theres more of a general discussion like LXC vs qemu/kvm then of course the public ffmpeg-devel list [...] -- Michael GnuPG fingerprint: 9FF2128B147EF6730BADF133611EC787040B0FAB The real ebay dictionary, page 2 "100% positive feedback" - "All either got their money back or didnt complain" "Best seller ever, very honest" - "Seller refunded buyer after failed scam"
