No, thats not true, very few bugs are marked as blocking, we have 2837 open/new bugs and 1 marked as blocking. And we had maybe 2-3 marked as blocking maximum at any time over the last weeks > Not every > bug ... should be blocking, true > and not every regression IMO, every regression should by default be blocking. Adding regressions is not ok. And adding and releasing with regressions should not be the default mode of operation. It should be 1. Mark every regression as blocking 2. Make an effort to fix the bugs you caused and help others to fix theirs 3. If some individual bug is too difficult to fix, make a concious decission to move that specific bugs blocking tag to the next release 4. If teh release gets delayed too much, its possible to release with the regressions, because "no release" can be worse > otherwise nothing ever > gets finished. Lets look at the facts we have 151 open/new bugs marked as regressions, 3 of them are less than 8 months old. That means 2 things 1. we have hundreads of old regressions (some maybe even arent reported) that are not getting fixed. Thats an issue and more attention should be brought to them. 2. we have 3 regressions that are new, I do think we can and should handle fixing new regressions. and 3. we arent really blocking the release, the blocking tag is flexible and very easy to change to the next release. But it gives things more vissi= bility thx [...] --=20 Michael GnuPG fingerprint: 9FF2128B147EF6730BADF133611EC787040B0FAB Into a blind darkness they enter who follow after the Ignorance, they as if into a greater darkness enter who devote themselves to the Knowledge alone. -- Isha Upanishad --EwJuyjUGSSEi0UUi Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iF0EABEIAB0WIQSf8hKLFH72cwut8TNhHseHBAsPqwUCZg6TPAAKCRBhHseHBAsP qwMEAKCA5urdB461cDy97kbDRsXjk4uBdACfS7gEXZJ0JOAl101juktB9F2slxY= =omUK -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --EwJuyjUGSSEi0UUi-- --===============1976958356494063255== 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". --===============1976958356494063255==--
