Well... you might just be in luck!  I've currently got some vacation to
use up and may well be going freelance in a few months time.  I finally
also have a decent internet connection (my village got wired last year)
so no more probs downloading large samples.

However is really any role for mpeg2enc these days?  I thought ffmpeg
did a pretty decent job these days.  Leastways it seems fine when I've
transcoded MPEG-2 via MythTV - which I've always assumed uses ffmpeg (I
have NO analog video sources anymore..)

Ronald: what do you think? You still seem pretty active in the wider
open-source multimedia world (a big 'well-done' with those WebM
efforts...!!).   Duplicated effort with multipleprojects none of which
is really quite production quality is the bane of open-source...


If there's really still a niche for mpeg2enc and you can sync me up on
the bugs with some nice sample files I'll get it working ... promise!


cheers,

	Andrew
