its your application, you can choose whatever timeline you feel makes
sense.
As far as iam concered whats important is to finish the qualification
task well before we have to choose the applicant(s) we accept this
year.

The timeline for the main project in dec-mar can be segmented as you
like but leave plenty of time toward the end, problems always occur
and things get delayed.
Also both for qualification and the main project submit code early
if you have questions ask early,
if you dont get satisfactory reply from me on something ask again and
louder/clearer ... i do sometimes also forget to reply until i then
remember again days later ...

also i think the architecture wasnt discussed much yet
do you have some plans about it ?

I mean for example there could be a avfilter that passes audio through
and adds fingerint(s) as metadata into thf AVFrame
(as with avpriv_frame_get_metadatap in vf_idet.c) and also print the
fingerprints via av_log()

a 2nd filter could then look these fingerprints from the metadata
up in some file/database

a 3rd one could add the fingerprints to the file/database

or these also could all be in one filter of course

this can be extended in the future to for example have a filter
delay the audio until lookup succeeds and then once identified
lookup lyrics online and add them or such (this of course would be a
future thing after outreachy/opw)

but maybe you have a different plan on how the components would
interact ?

thx
