Michael, that is totally out of line. You pointed out that SDR was a new hobby project of yours. You do not get to complain that people throw your own words back at you (even if, hypothetically, you regret them). > In fact iam not even sure what you talk about. > FFmpeg is not a propriatery licensed project Nobody said anything about FFmpeg or your SDR code being proprietary. > It seems to me you are trying to rally your followers against me, This is very demeaning to those people who are perfectly capable of thinking for ourselves and objected to the SDR code on similar technical grounds as Kieran's. And it is very highly hypocritical of you to accuse Kieran of politicking right after your allegations of defamation, since your words could very well be interpreted as defamation against him. > If you have real arguments, you can state them without these attacks Kieran, and others, have provided technical arguments a number of times in the past. > > I have been working on BIOS code recently but I haven't decided to > > create FFBIOS and put it in the main FFmpeg repo. > > because doing so would make no sense, BIOS is unrelated to FFmpeg and > multimedia FFmpeg as a UEFI app or bare metal "BIOS" would be more related to multimedia than SDR is, relatively speaking, IMO.

Other people do it is a very sorry excuse. If it doesn't relate to FFmpeg, it shouldn't be called FFmpeg. It's not even just a question of morality and principles: Trademarks need to be defended afterall. -- レミ・デニ-クールモン http://www.remlab.net/ _______________________________________________ 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".
