[MPlayer-dev-eng] future plans for libvo draw_osd()

[Richard Lee]

Hi there...

A few days ago, I posted a message wondering about the future of libvo
draw_osd() and the appropriate way to write a custom OSD overlay.  I was
hoping that someone could point me at the owner of this API so that I
can understand how to make use of it in a forward-looking way.  Any takers?
