Iam evil
I had talked with ronald and heared about the "sustainability" "need" and from that
made several plans. One i posted and was flamed because it sounded similar to a
talk on demuxed. (I think using the word "sustainability")
One of the other ideas was indeed STF: look:

I did intend to leave some time between posting each idea so people could reload
their guns properly but as life goes things get delayed, one is busy and
also in the STF case there was some push towards waiting
several of these ideas i still had no time to properly spell out and post

Also just because i wrote something doesnt mean these are finished, presentable
ideas

All that said, its not entirely uncommon that people publically hear of
things months after someone knew of something about it.

You can compare this to the bloomberg donation and the open collective
account that was created for ffmpeg by jb:
https://opencollective.com/ffmpeg

There was no public question before that account was created, I know because
some people where privatly upset about that.

thx

right to say it. -- Voltaire
