[FFmpeg-devel] Democratization

[Marth64]

Hi Kieran:

Trying to distill to a start of discussion points at the high level
(without GPT).
Converting the statements, from (issue)->(Michael) to (issue)->(effect):

* The community wants the GA/TC/CC to be sovereign, but there is a
BDOL model too which is not easily compatible, causing uncertainty
about democracy in the project.
We could inventory what the new operating models could be.
Michael can make proposals too. Could this be a vote?

* The community wants transparency about infrastructure, but Michael
refuses to publish.
Is Michael the only blocking factor? Is a possible solution that the
information is published with an expanded need-to-know audience?

* The community doesn't want arbitrary censorship, but there have been
recent instances of this and it's causing friction.
We could align on who gets the censorship rights and separate it from
the infrastructure work itself.

Is there one of these that we can have a focus group on and start with?

Thank you
