[MPlayer-users] When will there be a new release?

> How about the Windows version?

There is _not a single_ Windows developer left in the MPlayer team. I
sometimes boot into Windows out of pity with those who are stuck with
it, but that is not enough to fix the problems that have accumulated.
http://www.videolan.org/ obviously have the same problem.
Which in conclusion means:

Neither do we. AFAIK the last rc2 was from one of the people who do the
"unofficial" build, just without the custom patches.
My own Windows builds currently consistently crash with vorbis on Windows,
though there is a patch on -dev-eng I wanted to test since I think it might
help.
