I'm in the CELLAR working group (working on Matorka, FFV1, FLAC) and am also an archivist and can speak to this. The MediaConch project via PREFORMA has some funds to sponsor FFV1 and Matroska development during this year.

- Option to add CRCs to Top Level Elements in Matroska when muxing. http://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/4347
- Support for selecting an Ordered Edition in mkv: http://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/5698
- Bayer pixel format support in FFV1
- Support for additional color information in FFV1 to better handle lossless DPX->FFV1->DPX transfer while preserving characteristics such as if the sampling is logarithmic or linear.

Probably others. Feel welcome to suggest a bounty or send questions to myself or Jerome Martinez <Jerome at MediaArea.net>.
