I think future work should be done as FFV1v5 v6 v7 on CELLAR/IETF
why you ask ?
because that way 
its on its way to be a proper IETF standard from day 1
there are already people who are interrested in this there, like myself
and IIRC reto, and iam sure there are many more who would like to see
more discussions about improving and extending the codecs in more fundamental
ways.
also, you get more comments and testing on IETF/CELLAR
and for work beyond ffv1v3/4 to be successfull a critical mass of people / time
is needed. If everyone works seperate, which it seems a bit to me thats what
is happening, it would be harder to move such an effort to completion

thx

Rewriting code that is poorly written but fully understood is good.
Rewriting code that one doesnt understand is a sign that one is less smart
then the original author, trying to rewrite it will not make it better.
