Let's stop arguing, please. I'm out of the current vote anyway and if for Rostislav (and probably others) it's just about counting commits I'm definitely not among the top committers. If that's a valid metric for activity is another question. However, IIRC the current committee has been chosen by that and therefore it is kind of valid to weight that against me. Thus if the voting committee wants me in, just vote me in. Everyone there should be able to judge about my activity in the project including Rostislav who was among the devs I've met and talked to at VDD'15 (IIRC). It's completely ok if he thinks I'm not active enough for the committee. -Thilo _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel
