The VideoLAN project is pleased to announce the release of the first version of the Goldeneye branch of VLC: 1.0.0.This major release introduces many new features, new formats and new codecs to the VLC multimedia framework and fixes a very high number of bugs that were present in the 0.9.x or 0.8.6 versions.You can download it now.The VLC project only lives with volunteers and would love help from new users and contributors: time, code, hardware and money would help us a lot. You don't need to be a developer to help.
