I dont know why the options are exclusive. One can add a Forgejo on ffmpeg.= org but leave the Mailing List/Patch Workflow in place for cases where the maintainer or patch author prefers a ML workflow. I mean just add an option and see what happens Who uses it ? do people submit patches to it ? do people enjoy working with it ? do people hate working with it ? IIUC one can add 1 line to .git/config and then a git fetch will fetch all pull requests and one can simply merge any without any need of any browser. I also dont think we even need a vote to just setup a Forgejo on ffmpeg.org when it replaces nothing but just adds an option thx [...] --=20 Michael GnuPG fingerprint: 9FF2128B147EF6730BADF133611EC787040B0FAB It is dangerous to be right in matters on which the established authorities are wrong. -- Voltaire --BGLRHIgJG4POhQoX Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iF0EABEKAB0WIQSf8hKLFH72cwut8TNhHseHBAsPqwUCZ473vAAKCRBhHseHBAsP q+0cAJ4tIvXIQu0FdRgCUNlPST5tAIn3cACghhvWVbZ/YEUl2iv9vv4bP4+sohA= =EsV8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --BGLRHIgJG4POhQoX-- --===============2878703459737439185== 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". --===============2878703459737439185==--
