Hi all OPW (Outreach Program for Women) is twice per year (compared to google summer of code which is just once a year)
FFmpeg can participate in the next round but we need to fund at least 1 intern/student (6250 USD) for that. OPW is not run by a large corporation with deep pockets. Thus my mail here, if you are/represent a company or know one who does and who uses and benefits from FFmpeg, and has the financial resources, please consider to donate or ask/forward this mail. Why should you donate? Well the money will be used to fund a intern working on and improving FFmpeg. (assuming there will be a intern who wants to work on FFmpeg in OPW) Maybe it will be a failure, maybe it will lead to some minor improvments in FFmpeg, maybe it will majorly improve FFmpeg. And maybe we gain a new long term contributor. And improvments in FFmpeg again benefit you as company or user of FFmpeg. Also if you donate 6250$ to OPW for ffmpeg you get your logo at https://gnome.org/opw/ Either way for FFmpeg to be part of the next OPW round we need at least 1 payment commitment of 6250 USD by the end of August at the latest Please keep o...@ffmpeg.org in CC if you have questions or want to donate. PS: there are 2 ways to donate, one is directly to OPW/Gnome, this way you get your logo at gnome.org/opw if you donate at least 6250USD or through https://co.clickandpledge.com/advanced/default.aspx?wid=56226 for smaller sums. PS2: in case we get more than 6250$, on our SPI (clickandpledge) account the additional funding may be used for future ffmpeg-OPW rounds or things similar in spirit to OPW and GSOC.
