I think FFmpeg needs a clear guideline on this matter. To avoid confusion, to avoid disagreements and to ensure community members can point potential sponsors in an aggreed direction without hesitation. My suggestion would be: - The FFmpeg project should actively seek sponsors and funding. - The money would be used for FFmpeg (Maintenance, Development, Infra, Tes= ting, Travel, Research, ...) - A fair selection process shall be used by the FFmpeg Community to select= what the money is used for, which maximizes FFmpegs future. - The money would also be used to hire / employ FFmpeg Developers fulltime= or whatever the preferrance of each Developer is. - Work / employment shall be preferrentially be given to FFmpeg Developers= / FFmpeg community members. This preferrance for "FFmpeg Developers / FFmpeg community members" sha= ll be the only preferrance. Outside that preferrance, a fair selection process shall be used by the= General Assembly which only maximizes FFmpegs future. - Goals are * to provide secure full time employment for every major FFmpeg contrib= utor, who wants to have that. * to accelerate growth and improve quality suggestions ? should we vote on this and then add it to web or docs ? thx --=20 Michael GnuPG fingerprint: 9FF2128B147EF6730BADF133611EC787040B0FAB Frequently ignored answer#1 FFmpeg bugs should be sent to our bugtracker. U= ser questions about the command line tools should be sent to the ffmpeg-user ML. And questions about how to use libav* should be sent to the libav-user ML. --7GIfVLJQXzdyyuTi Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iF0EABEKAB0WIQSf8hKLFH72cwut8TNhHseHBAsPqwUCaL/jCgAKCRBhHseHBAsP q0Z5AJ9QH9QUPfCznEtKGPDcRnN+F7FWdQCfRHppRnGVAJ51iXheIVxTag2+crI= =4sW1 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --7GIfVLJQXzdyyuTi-- --===============1065756115309378993== 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 To unsubscribe send an email to ffmpeg-devel-leave@ffmpeg.org --===============1065756115309378993==--
