Not that I'm against the idea, but seeing the project has 3 members
|
19 |
already and none of them were part of the gfx+sound+video projects
|
20 |
AFAIK, I am wondering if this is the proper way to do it.
|
21 |
|
22 |
What about /j #gentoo-media, discuss, join the current projects, get a
|
23 |
few things done (there is a lot of choice there ;) ), maybe orphan
|
24 |
unmaintained players/viewers, or check if they are maintained and hand
|
25 |
them to a specific maintainer, and then see about merging or splitting
|
26 |
all those projects *after* gaining experience and knowledge about the
|
27 |
peculiarities of some of those packages ?
|
28 |
|
29 |
Speaking about sound&video, I am under the impression that the library,
|
30 |
or "codec" part, of those projects is far less lacking manpower than the
|
31 |
"leaf" part (players, frontends, etc.).
