You're supposing everyone wants voting rights. That is not so in my experience - I talked to multiple semi/formerly-active developers who believe they should not have voting rights on account of not being active enough. And for people who do want voting right - gathering and maintaining the required commit count requires only a very modest effort. So if someone loses voting rights then it can only be because they don't care enough about having them. -- Anton Khirnov _______________________________________________ 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".
