Some impressions and possible features: 
- It's weird that there was no contact with uploads in October offered.
- It would be if I could filter new-commers that work on packages I am 
using.

As ffmpeg is not part of Bebian testing anymore I had to use avconf with 
the following command:
  avconv -f alsa -ac 2 -i default -f x11grab -s $(xwininfo -root | grep 
'geometry' | awk '{print $2;}') -r 25 -i :0.0 -f mpeg -ar 48000 -s wvga 
-y "video-$USER-$(date --iso-8601).avi"


As I am not heavily involved in Debian, I used a different email 
template:
