Not being a regular, this may not count for much. But this sounds like a great opportunity, lets not pass it up. Projects i have seen on the mailing list over the last two years or so that i remember and should be of interest: - swscale rewrite/update/extension - deal with the libavdevice situation - remove postproc - Nicolas various utility proposals for strings, options, etc - hell, even a better infrastructure for dealing with incoming patches and tests surrounding them, using pull requests, automatic CI fate runs upon incoming pull requests, etc. These are issues that are either maintenance or infrastructure work, unlikely to be funded by companies, but can help the whole project forward. I know a bunch of these are contentious, but they are worth exploring. You all probably have ten more better ideas since you know the project better. Please focus on getting something together. I fail to see serious issues. This is not a vehicle for some company interest or closed source interest to influence the project. This is not a vehicle for some unpopular minority opinion on a direction the project should take to get pushed through. This is not unfair in its distribution by nature--suggest something you'd like to work on, this is a good chance to get it funded. I understand there are potentially legitimate issues around project management that come up here again. Of course these should be discussed. But do so in parallel to moving forward and putting an application together.
