its only been 5 days since they were posted.
patches.txt says a 'few days', but the unwritten rule is ~2 weeks.

mplayer only has 1 ass subtitle developer (Evgeniy)
and very few active developers.

if you or greg would like to take maintainership of libass in mplayer,
please say so.

if you would like to change this slow developer situation,
please offer to review other patches or review bugzilla
and reproduce or reject some bugreports.

if something isnt clear, or you feel like your work is being ignored
please tell us what we can do to clear up any miscommunications.
