as you are asking this. i must admit that i have a similar feeling and
question in relation to you

the intreadwrite stuff (why does it bother you so much if we export
 it through a clean and documented api, projects use it anyway and
 as is its certainly filled with more issues than if we tried to make
 it at least work in the common cases and documented it we can even
 officially say its not recommanded to be used ...

the gnu linker issues (you jumped at gnus defence but reading irc logs
 a while ago gave me the feeling you did not understand the issues there
 fully, so why did you attack me?

my svn repo on mphq, i remember you where against me being able to
 put my own little foss projects on mphq.

the vote (you know if you dont want to vote you can just not vote)

libavutil now (we can add a new lib or just make libavfilter depend
on libavcodec)

the 3rd->1st person commit

the removial of the gnu linker bug explanation/rant
