I have indeed seen that mencoder has been accepted into the archive 
and this is certainly great news. On the other hand, compared with 
heavy-weights as lame and xvid, I consider mencoder quite "harmless" 
beacuse it uses Debian's system libavcodec which already has most of 
its "critical" codecs disarmed. However, I'll keep my fingers crossed!

Judging from the abstract [1], this talk does not have too much to do 
with multimedia codecs but deals with privacy in the "cloud". However, 
as Felipe (congrats to your DD account!) already requested, please 
keep your fellows on the other side of the curtain informed. ;)

Cool, feels good to read this sentence about Debian from you (given 
how futile the mood was about one year ago when #522373 was filed.)
