And they need you to read their minds and speak for them? I see no evidence for this. > Also there has not been a real discussion from which i can see what the > community prefers. That's what the vote is supposed to do. The discussion shows there are fundamental disagreements that cannot be resolved otherwise. > I asked you to comment on the patches i posted but you dont want to. I did comment. My comment is that your approach amounts to derailing and hijacking this discussion, and I wish you did not do that because it is rude and adds unnecessary chaos and confusion. > the closest to a discussion where remis replies to my patches > and of course the other proposals for vote options. That IS the discussion. If its content is not to your liking then it's a problem with you, not the discussion. > if 10 people would reply and state their preferrance and i mean > 10 random people not everyone from "one side" of the main disagreement Who is "one side"? This thread has 10+ authors who expressed their opinions and concerns, and some proposed their preferred alternatives for the vote. Note how nobody except you has a problem with going forward with the vote. > then i would have a better feeling what people prefer That's what the vote is supposed to accomplish. > and assuming that points to one or 2 clear directions then i could > suggest options that are targetet to these oppinions. So you're implying there are these poor oppressed masses who are unable to speak their opinion and need you to read their minds and be their champion? You are insulting our community you know, they are not helpless toddlers. > But people like boykoting my suggestion for trying to move this > forward first by discussion and consensus.

I've read about many instances of someone claiming to speak for "the people", "the oppressed", "the proletariat", etc. Somehow they never actually do. > Also, extra options do no harm in a condorcet vote, it gives noone > an advanatge.

Our turnouts are already not great, adding filler options that nobody actually wants can reduce it further. -- 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".
