Well, to be honest, I'd be glad if xine-lib also got a new maintainer. 
(Xavier? :-) ) As I wrote, I only really maintain xine-lib because of Kaffeine, 
and I'll stop caring about xine-lib the day Kaffeine releases its MPlayer-based 
code (or something else not based on xine-lib). In particular, I also really 
don't want to maintain xine-ui…

Note that xine-lib-extras-freeworld can be merged back into xine-lib when it 
moves to RPM Fusion, and the new xine-lib can Obsolete/Provide it. That'll 
allow making the packaging a bit less of a wicked mess than it is now.
