why do you call it junk ?
and the sheduling for deletion was conditional on it not being fixed
IIRC.
Why the hurry to remove it while people work on fixing it ?
its not blocking anything ATM AFAIK

and why is this escalating in such a strange way, theres no need to
become aggressive.
Does the project really have too many developers?
If thats the case can you point me to someone to take over coverity
testing ? I cant find one ...

also reynaldo, has done alot for the project, not just through volunteer
work, but also by finding one of the very few sponsors who funded
students working in FFmpeg under the OPW as well as helping with GSoC
and OPW admin work.

For all i know reynaldo is not being paid to work on FFmpeg.
shouldnt you be a little nicer ...
