Hi team,
	A'rpi, I don't know what your release timeframe is, but these are
the last few items that I'm planning to finish for the next release (meant
to finish them this weekend, but hopefully in the next few days):
- RoQ video (only a few small visual artifacts left)
- QT RLE variants
- get FILM seeking correct (still need your help on this)

	After I finish these tasks, I'm taking a break from MPlayer
development. I've been hacking on MPlayer pretty obsessively for the last
3 months. Now I want to work on a few other projects, including some
research that is tangentially related to MPlayer and will hopefully help
the project in the codec department. I've gained a ton of experience in
codec development in the last few months and now I want to move up to
something more advanced.

	I'll still lurk around, answer questions, and probably even commit
a patch every now and again. But you won't see as many random new codecs
every week...:)

	Thanks...
