If ffmpeg maintainers cannot keep up, downstream customers should know so they can help.
- kierank 1y agoFFmpeg is developed almost entirely by volunteers. We have no "customers".
- seb1204 1y agoWhy complain about pressure from customers then?
- surajrmal 1y agoThere are people who use and depend on ffmpeg. Maintainers seem to go out of their way to solve issues these folks face. If you don't care, then ignore the bug reports and force them to solve their own problems by contributing.
- kierank 1y agoThen you and your security friends will create lots of FUD about FFmpeg being "insecure" with lots of red and the word "critical" everywhere.
- samus 1y agoThese people are not customers though. The maintainers do their best, but overall the project seems to be understaffed though, so customers (for example Google, as it seems they occasionally chip in) get priority.
