Good point to remind us what was said. On my own analysis, I also considered that S2API is better than Multiproto, just like the group of developers at LPC. All the above happened as expected, including the merge of the winner proposal after LPC. I do believe that the taken decision is the better one, since my personal view matched with the other developers view at the conf. It also matched with most of the feedback received at the ML, where S2API had more acks than Multiproto. Cheers, Mauro PS.: This will likely be my last email about this subject. I have lots of pending work requiring my attention. _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
