I think the path should be decided by the developer doing the work, if she = wants to extend libplacebo and import that, sure ok too with me Only the contents of the C, H and asm files affects the people using the co= de And i expeted some reused code, so i call it cleanup. Things called "rewrites" also often failed. So its IMHO a sligtly cursed te= rm, but they are just terms, what the rsult is matters thx [...] --=20 Michael GnuPG fingerprint: 9FF2128B147EF6730BADF133611EC787040B0FAB I know you won't believe me, but the highest form of Human Excellence is to question oneself and others. -- Socrates --+i6GWCH4khrSQjQ2 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iF0EABEIAB0WIQSf8hKLFH72cwut8TNhHseHBAsPqwUCZSm+dwAKCRBhHseHBAsP q1uGAJ94hXb3MrUH0LCmBa9BPi8Q7Tpb+QCfZEgL04ix23Pl9THWhba3WjXL1S0= =AOsG -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --+i6GWCH4khrSQjQ2-- --===============7189936279327007827== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-request@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe". --===============7189936279327007827==--
