Hi,

_FYI_, MPlayer makes the frontpage of LinuxWorld.

Quoting the journalist Joe Barr:

"MPlayer: The project from hell
MPlayer works fine once you get past the tyro-written installation
script & docs

Summary
MPlayer exemplifies a form of inverse-logic karma. It's a fine video
player, but you need to work through an amateur-written installation,
documentation that exemplifies how not to communicate with an audience,
and boorish developers who think of themselves as a sort of intellectual
jeunesse dorée. (1,600 words)"
