Hi,

That doesn't sound really viable for regular "day-to-day" operations of social 
network channels, and it's superfluous for stuff that's already been agreed upon.

If you think in patches, I see it would be superfluous. Not that I think that 
this is the way to look at it - news and patches not necessarily correlate in a 
1-1 manner.
About viability, I don't see your argument. Patches, incl their acknowledgement 
or rejection, already is our day-to-day procedure and the project does not 
benefit from a faster news-release than this (maybe relaxed for news) scheme 
would yield. The benefit of doing it the news-patch way, you give yourself:


The problem is abusing your account privileges to push forward something that 
was obviously not agreed upon in the first place, such as a controversial 
feature proposal (as was the case here), or a feature whose implementation is 
as yet missing or incomplete.

You shouldn't post this, period. It's not a matter of discussing the post 
first: if the feature is completed and merged, then you can announce it. If 
it's not, then you shouldn't make any announcements.

The problem of such controversial posts would completely be solved if a news 
post goes as patch to the list. No more rules or assumptions needed - ok'd or 
not. Like we iterate many times a day for code. Would it not? Otherwise we'd be 
having more controversial posts, yet not as easily to spot as the git log and 
impossible to correct. I like the overhead of news-patches more.

what ?
libavradio is part of FFmpeg its just a seperate repository.
libavradio will also be part of the 6.1 release, it was even officially
announced. The tweet had over 500 likes IIRC. No sneaking here.


And who made that tweet? Or the decision to tweet it in the first place?

That is a good point. Right now, several people just post what they want on 
several channels, at least Twitter and Linked.in. Without the community 
involved.

We should do a <news post / tweet / whatever you call it> via the means of 
posting a regular patch for a new news entry to the website - once ok'd on the list, 
post that as news on the website (push the patch) and trigger all channels to post a 
similar thing.
