A less important issue; but I think a clear stance on use of Github/Gitorious and their pull request development model would be useful. I think it is clear that in general many people here do not like it, and repeated comments on the FFmpeg Github page discourage it. However, a user checking out README.md (which is the document people see on Github) does not have an explicit note on this; and instead only a hyperlink to the documentation which again lacks full clarity on this point. My own proposed solution is an added line to README.md clearly stating that FFmpeg does not do pull requests from Github, and instead that we use the mailing list. This will hopefully reduce the number of pull requests on Github; thus avoiding fragmentation of development discussion. > -- > FFmpeg = Fascinating & Fiendish Murdering Powerful Earthshaking Gymnast > _______________________________________________ > ffmpeg-devel mailing list > ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org > http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel
