I agree the rename is a net improvement in the long term, giving that this will remove the developer cognitive load and possibly mistakes due to the misleading name, while the effort required to make the mechanical rename should be rather small - also there is no evidence that users are really using this API in their application code so probably the overall effort is close to zero in this case and it is only benefits the developers. While I agree with Anton that we should avoid duplication, for the usual arguments that a reference should avoid duplication of content as much as possible, which inevitably leads to inconsistent content when it is updated partially, leading to inconsistent information. _______________________________________________ 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".
