[vlc-devel] GSOC 2026 - checkasm integration proposal question

[Tristan Matthews]

Hi Mazen,

Ahmed is just starting so if I were you I'd reach out to him. If this
is able to land, the GSoC task could focus more on adding checkasm
coverage for our existing asm. I'm also a bit confused as right now
I'm seeing the MR has 0 commits, maybe he messed up a rebase or
something?

Best,
Tristan
