This is news.

GPAC self reported on using the FFmpeg booth at NAB: https://x.com/JanetGrecoBP/status/1773342135514779700 Devin even reported on this very list that there were *only* GPAC people: https://ffmpeg.org//pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2024-April/325765.html If there were at least three of you, then why did you not reply to Devin back then and why did you not arrange to keep at least one person on the booth while the other went eating? > An accusation of embezzlement sounds serious. If as she herself alleged, Mrs Janet Greco used the FFmpeg booth for her or her employer's commercial interest, then that is embezzlement by the dictionary definition: the IBC booth funding that Thilo secured from the anonymous sponsor for FFmpeg would instead have been used by those third parties. IANAL, so I won't comment if this meets the legal definition. -- レミ・デニ-クールモン http://www.remlab.net/ _______________________________________________ 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".
