I'm sorry, but I believe this is the downside of the MAINTAINERS file. MAINTAINERS file explain to people that someone "owns" a part of the code, and therefore, there is no incentives for other people to understand that code. Also, it de-responsibilizes people from reviewing the parts that are not the ones that they maintain. And that happens because some people on the MAINTAINERS files are not active anymore. -- Jean-Baptiste Kempf - President +33 672 704 734 _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
