However in these 2 years, that repository has gained a lot of publicity and fame, and we cannot ignore that. For that reason I suggest that we use a distinguishable name, even if "we" or "you" have used/invented that name before Christian Marillat. Ideally we can invite Christian to collaborate or even join the debian effords! I have already invited him to have a look at the ffmpeg package, and am still waiting for response from him. -- Gruesse/greetings, Reinhard Tartler, KeyID 945348A4 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
