Well, in that case the doc is broken in a worse way. "Bugs and possilbe improvements or general questions regarding commits are discussed there" does not even apply to ffmpeg-cvslog, it really applies to ffmpeg-devel. In that case this patch is still an improvement over the current situation. ffmpeg-cvslog is pretty much useless for a dev on daily basis, since he/she can't see the discussion. If a dev is subscribing to something, ffmpeg-devel gives far more useful information and IMHO is the preferred mailing list. However, perhaps the commit message needs rewording due to my misunderstanding. > _______________________________________________ > 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
