I sent an email minutes ago with an alternative plan. I'd like to
volunteer to continue the evolutionary changes to virtio-video. I'm
already working on the v7 draft. I think it will be available next week.
Then I'll focus on making the driver V4L2 compliant. I think all of this
is achievable by July 1st. At least the spec part. I think the
revolutionary changes should be in a separate namespace. The rationale
is in the longer email. WDYT?

Kind regards,
Alexander Gordeev
