8 Maybe it'd make sense to create a new project that is focused
9 on maintaining core libraries for gfx/audio/video formats (technical
10 name: codec project)? Right now, sound and video teams are also
11 suffering from similar problems. On one hand, it makes little sense to
12 create huge projects that maintain every single kind of gfx/sound/video-
13 related tool ever made, on the other it doesn't exactly make sense to
14 require every single core library to have an individual maintainer.
