However, I must express my disappointment in the insinuation that I am acting in bad faith. It is essential to approach discussions with mutual respect and trust, assuming positive intent from all parties involved. Implying bad faith undermines the spirit of constructive dialogue and collaboration that is crucial for the progress of our community. I must address the concerning implication of bad faith in your response. Accusations of acting in bad faith are detrimental to our collaborative efforts and undermine the mutual respect necessary for productive discourse within our community. It is imperative that we engage in discussions with goodwill and a presumption of positive intent from all parties involved. Such insinuations hinder our ability to work together effectively and erode the trust essential for maintaining a healthy community environment. While I value your dedication to upholding the integrity of our project's rules, I urge us to refrain from casting doubt on each other's motivations. Let us refocus our efforts on constructive dialogue aimed at finding solutions that serve the best interests of the FFmpeg project. Thank you for your understanding, and I remain committed to fostering a culture of respect and collaboration within our community. -- Vittorai _______________________________________________ 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".
