Hi,

I am a contributor on the GPAC multimedia project. We provide several
tools, among them a player which relies on FFmpeg/libav for decoding.

As you know, the Debian Multimedia maintainers switched to libav for their
packages. We barely noticed until the libav API started to change.

I've just replied to Reinhard on the Debian Multimedia mailing-lists (
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-multimedia-maintainers/2013-September/034488.html).
It appears that the libav API is not stable along the 'release/9' branch.
Is it expected?

>From where I stand, I have the feeling your API is evolving fast. We, at
GPAC, have a linear (no branches) and slow cycle of development. It means
that we have to support more and more versions of your API simultaneously.
In the long-term, this is not sustainable.

Is there anything we should know which could ease our work with libav?

Regards,

Romain
