Yeah, sure, absolutely nothing. FTP including virtual users, the samples
collection, the MPlayer homepage, necessary cronjobs, the FFmpeg
homepage including generation scripts, Subversion conversion for half
a dozen repositories plus scripts, rsync, ViewVC, server monitoring,
Apache setup, having to deal with the braindead DNS bureaucracy in .hu,
some stuff I forget, plus - last not least - *BACKUP* for both mphq1 and
mphq2 are all nothing.

Not to mention that all of this (at least for me and Attila) fell into
an exams/thesis period and day to day tasks like work have to be done
as well.  Oh, and we do try to get laid sometimes, do you? ;-p

We're not complaining that we are in trouble now, but after having been
working our asses off for the last week I can tell you that now is not
the moment to come up with wild ideas while we are struggling to set up
the basic functionality.  Details and advanced functionality will come
later on, we have to set priorities.

And yes, it is damn annoying to see that the loudest complainers help
the least...
