"A message from the creator of MPlayer, Arpi:
Hi,
It was exactly 10 years ago, that I've released first MPlayer version, v0.01: 
http://www1.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/old_stuff/releases/MPlayer-0.01.tar.gz Yes, 
f*cking 10 years!!!! Nov 11, 2000... Time goes on so fast...
I want to thank you all for the contributions, patches, bugs, docs, testing 
etc. Especially Michael Niedermayer, Fabrice Bellard and Nick Kurshev, who made 
it to be the best & fastest open-source player!
>>>And sorry Nick, I made a big mistake rejecting your multi-threaded patches. 
>>>Unfortunatelly your idea came too early, nobody (at least me) thought that 
>>>desktop PCs will ever have multiple CPUs... and now that even cheap 
>>>notebooks and netbooks have multi-core CPUs, it would be very useful for HD 
>>>playback...<<<
Also special thanks to Gabucino, Pontscho and LGB, for your support in the 
early days, when everybody thought i'm mad, working on video player for linux...
A'rpi
ps: Albeu, i'll never forgive your playtree patches :)"

So, there is any movement to accepting Nick pathces to upstream mplayer?
