August and I have been working to get gavl and gmerlin-avdecoder and  
all the relevant libs building on Windows so that readanysf~ and Gem  
can use them on all platforms.  That means these libs still need to be  
imported:

ffmpeg
faac
faad2
gmerlin-avdecoder
gavl

There are probably others that I am forgetting.  By the way, this  
turns out to be a pretty big task.  We have made some substantial  
progress, and August has gotten mingw fixes checked in for gavl and  
gmerlin-avdec.  But its too big for the two of us right now.  If we  
could get some help, then this is much more likely to happen.   
readanysf~ is really working well now on Mac OS X, where all the libs  
are in Fink now.  Debian still lacks gmerlin-avdec, I haven't checked  
Fedora.

Like merging Pd-extended 0.41.4 and Pd-vanilla 0.42.5

If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of  
exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an  
idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps  
it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into  
the possession of everyone, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself  
of it.            - Thomas Jefferson
