I'm not on payroll for either hat so I don't see any conflict with that.

The tinderbox is a _personal_ effort, among other reasons because
otherwise I would be able to force some other developers to care about
the bugs instead of closing them as NEEDINFO because they don't like the
way they are presented. And I would probably be able to demand people to
act on them instead of keeping 1500 of those bugs open at any time.

And since I'm a person, and as I said I'm not paid to do this work (the
bandwidth and hosting is sponsored by my employer, who uses libav in
production, and the rest of the running costs are on me), I can't see
how you expect me to disregard insults that have been pointed to me over
time.

ffmpeg is in the same list as paludis and will not, ever, be tested on
my boxes, as long as it's a personal effort. Are you going to pay me to
run it? If the answer is no, please fuck off or run your own.

And I also told you this before, if you want to be so scandalized by it
right now, you either have a very shallow memory or you're looking to
make a mountain of a molehill.

Finally, I would like to point out that I haven't said anything one way
or the other regarding the default — I haven't even tried to push for
the change beforehand even though that's the one I tested. I just
refuted the statement of "the tree not being ready for libav" putting on
record that there is no indication that ffmpeg's situation is much
different, as it is not currently being tested by me (and nobody else is
doing the testing, so there).
