They are, in essence, a fork.  While I know that lots of users are
enjoying them, they constitute an unsupported version of myth.  If you
want to go on releasing them, and people want to go on using them,
then that's fine-- But for purposes of "official" myth support, for
all intents and purposes they *don't* exist.  Anyone using them will
continue to be turned away in IRC, and any bug filed while using them
will continue to result in being asked to reproduce it running an
unmodified version of myth-- just as we would with anyone running
third party patches.

When .22 comes out, anyone experiencing upgrade issues will be
redirected to you for support.  So, in short, Raymond's point is
pretty pertinent-- if one wants to use VDPAU and get current and
ongoing support, they'll do it with trunk.  If they do it with your
fork, they will be expected to get that support from you.
