[FFmpeg-devel] The "bad" Patch

[softworkz .]

CONCLUSIONS
===========

Meanwhile it should have become clear that this conversation is not about
whether the 15/15 patchset gets or should have gotten included or not.
It's about the things that happened around it and how they happened:

=> False statements like I would have pushed without addressing all reviews

=> A patch that was quickly brandmarked even though almost nobody had looked at it
   without any discussion and assessment

=> Claims like "softworkz is pushing bad patches"

=> softworkz shouldn't have been given commit rights

=> it's the worst patchset in the history of the project


That chain of events is what is just not acceptable.
It is in no way adequate or appropriate.

Everybody who has been part of that chain should think about this.
I'm sure that many didn't have the intention to achieve this outcome.

But unfortunately, there's one or another who has worked on moving this
forward in a way to achieve that outcome exactly.
To those persons, I want to be very clear: Trying those things on me will
never work out, as I will always try 10 times harder against it and the
result for those will be very different and more impactful in case anybody
would ever try again to strategically and purposefully and against better
knowledge defame or discredit me.


I don't want all this. I don't want to deal with such things, I just want 
to collaborate in a friendly and professional way. Anybody - without 
exception - who is getting back to me in a friendly way will receive a 
friendly response, no matter what happened yesterday. I have no hard feelings
in this at all - it's just work and it has been pretty annoying that
I had to write all those messages. Still, I cannot leave all those untrue
statements lying around without context.

You will see a number of messages which are linking to this conversation
from other conversations. I apologize in advance for that spam, but it 
wasn't me who created the situation.


Best regards,
softworkz
