As said on IRC, i thought people knew it, but ‘the same person as before’ is Thilo. Ive updated the price design suggestion for the merge task, its 16€ / commit limited to 50k€ this comes from looking at pauls fork which has around 500 commits in 2 months thus 250 commits per month, 12 months, and if we allocate 50k that end with roughly 16€ / commit if activity stays equal. The task has ATM no developer on it. If a developer adds himself, he can change teh task and specify what he proposes to merge. I am totally perplexed why every dot on every i is such a big thing. We are doing GSoC for a decade and noone cared about voting about anything in it. The difference here is FFmpeg developers are benefiting from the money. Neither GSoC nor STF binds the GA or FFmpeg to accept bad code. Have you thought about this ? where would that come from ? We send an application and a scope of work FFmpeg is no legal entity we cant sign anything binding. The developers doing the work can sign some binding text, that text might read ill implement X and get Y payed, or i spend X hours working on Y and get Z paid. If a devleoper signs "i will push this to ffmpeg" thats on the developer and her problem if it gets rejected or reverted. GSoC doesnt do this and i dont think any sane person would sign this, I myself on consulting jobs generall point out to customers that i can do work X but cannot gurantee acceptance in FFmpeg as sometimes things get rejected for hard to predict reasons. thx [...] thx -- Michael GnuPG fingerprint: 9FF2128B147EF6730BADF133611EC787040B0FAB If you drop bombs on a foreign country and kill a hundred thousand innocent people, expect your government to call the consequence "unprovoked inhuman terrorist attacks" and use it to justify dropping more bombs and killing more people.
