"AVIF: Creating a new image format in the open" by Jon Bauman (Strange Loop 2022)

Описание: AVIF is the first new image format shipped by major browsers in over a decade. This talk will cover the motivation for its creation, the technical and process innovations in the standard and its implementations. I'll tell the story of my personal experiences learning and participating in the standards process as well as implementing support in Firefox with a new Rust-based parser. It will also cover the human perspective of working in the open and the dynamics of cooperating with tech giants as a Mozilla employee.
