I did write him some time ago and he told me I could go ahead with the
merge, though we didn't discuss any specifics.

I do know the MPlayer rules and that's mostly why I want to discuss it
here first. I've been steadily increasing the organization of the
development, separating changes, tracking bugs or gathering feedback.
I hope to continue this as part of the official MPlayer OSX project
and to hopefully improve quality with more people looking at my
changes.

Though going back and breaking down all changes would be a huge effort
and IMO not worth the time, which can be invested into advancing
development instead.

I can imagine doing either:
* Merging Extended in one go, just like an initial import
* Merging all ten revisions individually
* Moving the Extended repo and disuse the current one

I did try to find any info on the sourceforge page but wanted to ask
here first before I contact them directly.
