Re: Greetings Mplayer Maintainers!

If at all possible, could someone please update mplayer?
The latest release -- 20110816 -- has some bugs in that caused many of my
videos to not work. It forced me to stick with the version before that --
20110412. Staying with the previous version of mplayer means I'm staying
with the previous version of it's prerequisites, which in turn is preventing
me from upgrading to Firefox 10.
Those bugs have since been fixed, but rpmfusion hasn't released an update
for mplayer. I've been trying many different way to update the package
myself, but my lack of familiarity of the lack of help from the mplayer
community has made this a frustrating experience.
I was hoping one of the mplayer maintainers could step up to the challenge,
or at least provide me some help to do so.
Someone needs to volunteer to maintain mplayer within RPM Fusion, at
this step nobody has volunteer and the previous maintainer is very
busy.
I wonder if I will remove mplayer from the F-17 tree at all if it's not updated.
