Hi,

I agree that we should prepare an LTS upload for libav in the near
future now.

Diego, could you brief us on the status of your work in progress please?

I'm counting 22 open CVEs for libav at the moment. Which of them do you
intend to address with your fixes? Do you mind working together with
Hugo Lefeuvre on some issues? I could imagine you both could pool your
resources together.

Regards,

Markus
