typo: likely not be noticed [...] I wonder if adding the contents to README.md is not a better choice Note also since we're writing about github, that the README.md will have a better visibility there, since it is shown on the project main page: https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg -- FFmpeg = Fantastic and Fascinating Mysterious Perennial Ermetic Gigant _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel
