That's not what was announced, at all.

I'm not assuming anything and I don't know the nature of his intentions, but i do know everything points said intentions are to keep code he has no plan to deal with afterwards. That's all i stated. If you're interested in waving the CoC around, you could reply to the two emails where Nicolas called me a dictator and an imbecile. It would be nice to know I'm not being ganged up by two or three people on this whole deal. _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel
