But the only unfair and dishonest thing here is you misrepresenting my words publicly. The quality of your contribution can be seen with `git log -p`. What your use of GMail's software discredits is not the quality of your contribution but the relevance of your advice on using mail. > The whole point is to attract new contributors and make the workflow > easier for everyone Still that idiotic idea that attracting more newbies will solve the issue that we do not have enough senior developers. > to improve productivity. The current bullshit decreases the productivity of the most productive member of the project. -- Nicolas George _______________________________________________ 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".
