Call for volunteers to write NUT de/muxer for libavformat
Subject pretty much says it all. A NUT de/muxer in libavformat is currently the major bottleneck for starting to advertise NUT. There are still complaints on the readability of the spec. Rich and I have been working on an informative "introduction" document which IMO gives the starting knowledge necessary to understand the spec. I might be completely wrong on this, but we cannot know until someone who has no previous knowledge on NUT steps in and tells us what trouble he runs into. Any volunteers? Please sign up to nut-devel@mplayerhq.hu and inform us... - ods15

Valid complaints, I might add.

For crying out loud, what does it take to make you realize that the spec needs some sane NORMATIVE content?

I already did, and you refused to listen. -- Måns Rullgård mru@inprovide.com

Indeed.

This is where we'd like to know what you (or someone else) thinks we need. Please please tho don't make it about codec id! We already have someone tentatively lined up to do essentially what I proposed in my last email on the issue.

We're working on it. At least one thing in nut.txt was already changed based on what you found unclear, but we need to know what's unclear. We can't read your mind and staring at this thing for the past 3 years has made us somewhat blind to the distinctions of what is and is not obvious. :) Rich
