 Hi all

 There are various areas in the project that are not maintained as well as
 they
 should be, heres a certainly not comlpete list, dont hesitate to reply and
 add to it.
 If someone wants to pick something up and contribute that is VERY welcome

 * Post merge reviewcleanup, changes merged from libav would benefit from
   people reviewing and MUCH MUCH more importantly also people actually
 caring
   about and taking responsibility not just dumping comments with the idea
   someone will fix it.
   Ideally each area would have a maintainer who takes care of it and
   keeps it in good nick.


 * fate clients
   we lack a armcc test, a real android test
   someone should take over haiku and sunos/solaris fate clients, my haiku
 VM just
   keeps crashing


 I can take care of the Haiku test if I have (access to) a better/faster
 computer…


 * our fate server lacks the ability to display a user specified release
   this makes the output look quite unwieldy
   Timothy was working on a rewrite


 I haven't touched that thing in a few months but it's in a pretty good
 shape. With a few minor updates it should be good to go at least on
 fate-beta.ffmpeg.org or something like that. There are still a few minor
 things I want to fix (like minirep/minilog, warning diff (is it really
 useful now since most boxes are using make -jx and testing order changes
 every time?), and some minor styling issue).

 [...]

 * Decentralize
   Too many things are done and admined by me, iam doing security updates
 to the
   servers, doing the git merges, maintaining all releases, maintaining
 half the
   fate clients, submitting data to coverity and doing all the crap that
 noone
   else wants to do.
   Does the community care so little that they want me to be a single point
 of
   failure?
   We need people to take some of this over at least on the basis of a
 backup
   in case iam unavailable for whatever reason, and i think it should
 ideally
   be people who do not yet have their daily work shedule overflowing with
 ffmpeg
   work but better new volunteers.


 - Project servers: MAINTAINERS list four people [1], one of which I have
 never
   ever seen on this list, and it is not clear to me how the servers are
   administered (who pays for it? who has access to it? who has access to the
   hosting company's setting page?) [2]
 - Git merges: when I first came to this project merges are still called
 Merge
   from remote tracking branch 'qatar/master'. WTF is qatar? Now of course
   that is not a problem any more, but the merges remain undocumented on any
   official documentation I could find (maybe I didn't look hard enough?). If
   the behavior itself is not known publicly how can anyone help?
 - Coverity: one can easily hook it up to a FATE box.

 [1]: https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/blob/master/MAINTAINERS#L48
 [2]: Yes I guess I can ask on IRC or whatever but I am lazy, and I know that
  there are people lazier than me. If it is so hard to find out how to
  *volunteer* I would not imagine many people trying to volunteer.

 But anyway, I can volunteer to take over coverage.ffmpeg.org. But again who
 should I find to discuss this thing in detail? Michael? Clément? I don't
 know.

 Also a news article on a call for maintainers would be beneficial (?).
