Because that's what we agreed on? Do a major release every year in Dec/Jan with an ABI/API breakage at that time. If you want to do a 5.2, why not, but I don't see the need, especially if 5.1 is the LTS one. But why not... But not doing what we said about major releases is a big breakage of trust. -- 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".
