Dear mentors,

I'd like to help the multimedia team to maintain "mplayer",
(see #1005899) and I'm looking for a sponsor:


 * Package name     : mplayer
   Version          : 2:1.5+svn38408-1
   Upstream contact : [fill in name and email of upstream]
 * URL              : https://mplayerhq.hu
 * License          : GPL-2+, LGPL-2.1+, other-2, ISC,
   public-domain-tom, Expat, other-1, BSD-2-Clause
 * Vcs              : https://salsa.debian.org/multimedia-team/mplayer
