Call for partecipation!

Hi!

transcode suffers from an historical lack of development resources, the
far most important missing being the developer time.
We have lots of ideas, plans and a nice roadmap
(just to throw in some buzzwords: better synchronization, better ogg
support, mkv support, dirac, flac, streaming support, more filters, an
official GUI, new socket interace, and more): transcode is NOT dying,
far from it: it has just a very, very slow growth.

So, anyone interested to jump in? Step out!

Let me clear the field from some misconceptions:
- You DO NOT have necessarely to know multimedia!
  Yes, this is right! Even if transcode is definitively a multimedia
  project, there are a lot of plain software engineering/coding tasks
  that does NOT require specific or just requires trivial multimedia
  knowledge; Just for the record, I actually use a significant part
  of my development time doing such tasks.
- There are NOT only big, difficult tasks!
  There are a fair number of medium-to-little projects or tasks await
  completion! Every little bit helps!
- You DO NOT have necessarely to write C code!
  Yes, this is right! We're in need of some things that are best
  accomplished (IMHO) in Python or Perl!
- You DO NOT have necessarely to write any code!
  Yes! This is right as well! Documentation/tutorials describing
  transcode are way too often out-of-date or just missing!
  Help us to improve this situation.

See you in transcode-devel! :)

Bests,
