[FFmpeg-devel] [REQUEST] Remove me from GA

[Derek Buitenhuis]

Buckle in, this'll be a bit of a ride. Part of it is inflamatory, and
part of it is paranoid (or not) rants. I accept this may be slander and
will pre-emptively ban myself for the sake of getting it in the open.

I do not wish to be involved in any voting or disucssions anymore,
related to the direction of community and its associated infra, etc.

I do not want to be involved in choosing any new non-functional CC
or TC, because they are not effective due to their membership.

I do not have faith things can improve as long as Fabrice controls
the the trademark and domain name and only speak to Michael, and as
long as Michael and old dead mplayer people control the infra, and
grasp on to control because he thinks j-b is trying to "take over"
and only he is trustworthy in his own paranoid mind. Everyone who 
disagrees with him is "attacking" him and he selctively replies to
emaisl to drive his version of a narrative. And as long as
people like Compn are around to endless reply insane crap. If the
wider industry understood how our infra is setup and "secured", it
would be a scandal and people would rightfully freak out.

I also do not believe STF and SPI are being used appropriately, and
I believe Thilo is recieving money through this, possible via Michael,
(and also only appears when the next thing he needs is relevant). I
also think there is something weird going on with our booths which Thilo
keeps registering wihtout telling the community, and GPAC (NAB is already
registered BTW, with noone being told).

Maybe one day FFmpeg will join 2024 and the real world and stop acting
like it is a tiny project in 2004 and not the basis for every major
corporation in the world that handles media, and every Linux OS. I do
not have faith that this can occur though, due to the above.

The only mails you'll see from me in the future are code or reviews. I
am sure certain community members will appreciate that.
