Deprecation period lasts ~2 years after the introducing commit hits git master, regardless of how many releases are made before or after. And we tend to make a release every three to five months, so it's not an issue like in libav where they make one release per year or so and a deprecated API making it in means extending its life for at least that much time. _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel
