Cheers,

if you guys dont have any 'easy' work for him he might be interested in,
maybe we can win his interest in MCF :-) ??  Our java team member Jon
Hickman is creating -gemma, the MCF authoring tool and needed assistance
there, also he could look into Virtualdub sources and prepare MCF
writing/editing/support together with robux4 or assist myFUN with
testing/debugging the very early alpha MCF Dshow parser.

It may seem strange to see that all this work is going on already, while MCF
specs are not even finished, but we dont expect any major changes and in the
end it ill all be done in libmcf, so all the 'surrounding' work should be
easy to adapt.

Biggest unsolved problem is still codec handling from libmcf, transor API
was our attempt to create a good, commonly usable API for that and its
pretty matured already, but we have to wait what UCI will come up with, its
no use making double work.
