Reposting my question/comment here since Thilo hasn't had a chance to respond, but shouldn't these kinds of requests go through the GA? If anybody can do whatever they want with the ffmpeg name, then what's the point of voting and following the established process?
Probably? I'm not actually sure what the process is for getting an FFmpeg booth at a conference. Is there a documented process somewhere for how this should be done? If not this might be a good opportunity to create one.
Agreed, do you have a draft you could share as a base of discussion? Once defined, we could have the GA vote on it
If you really want to work on a proposal I'm happy to collaborate with you offline to draft something and then propose it to the GA.
Sure I'm happy to work on this with you! Let's talk offline about it
It might also make for a good topic of discussion at VDD. For how much
drama there was about NAB on the list I was surprised there was zero discussion about it at FOSDEM.
There were probably more important topics to discuss and the lingering hope that the problematic points would have been handled better than by calling people trolls
Perhaps. Shall we set something up at VDD? I think in person discussion can go a long way to avoid the kind of miscommunication that can happen over email.
I'd say we should try and lay down the basic rules for booths and ffmpeg representations in general, get the approval from GA and see if they can be applied to IBC. Then we can set up some time at vdd as retro if successful or think of something else if the drama continues maybe. Thanks for helping with this complicated situation. -- Vittorio
