hi,

i'll investigate if we can do this.  i am guessing it isn't possible
to go with the standard of having all the mplayer ftp sites using
/pub/mplayer or /pub/MPlayer ?

because we have 800+ archives here i really prefer to avoid putting
things outside /pub if i can help it..

if i have no choice then i guess i can make an exception but i
thought i'd point it out..
