I appreciate the opportunity to delve deeper into our governance rules and their interpretation within the FFmpeg community. While I understand that you're referencing the existing rules that we've collectively agreed upon, I believe it's crucial for us to periodically review and refine these rules to ensure they remain aligned with our evolving community values and goals. The rules we've agreed upon serve as a foundation for our governance structure, providing guidelines for decision-making and ensuring fairness and transparency in our processes. However, as our community grows and evolves, it's natural for interpretations and perspectives to shift, necessitating occasional reassessment of these rules. Your reminder about the importance of adhering to the established rules is valid, and I share your commitment to upholding them. However, I also believe that our rules should be flexible enough to accommodate diverse viewpoints and adapt to changing circumstances. Therefore, I propose that we engage in a collaborative effort to revisit and clarify our existing rules. By fostering open dialogue and soliciting input from all members of the community, we can ensure that our governance framework reflects the collective wisdom and values of our community. Furthermore, this process of review and refinement will help address any ambiguities or discrepancies in our rules, promoting greater clarity and understanding among all stakeholders. It will also provide an opportunity to incorporate new insights and best practices that may have emerged since the rules were initially established. In conclusion, I appreciate your reminder about the importance of adhering to our agreed-upon rules. However, I believe that revisiting and clarifying these rules is a proactive step toward strengthening our governance processes and ensuring the continued success and sustainability of the FFmpeg project. Thank you for your dedication to the community, and I look forward to engaging in productive discussions to enhance our governance framework. -- Vittorai _______________________________________________ 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".
