[ffmpeg-devel] Suggestion: rename libavformat\utils.c andlibavcodec\utils.c

Hi,

Ah yes, the illustrious CVS... I was afraid there would be a wrench in the 
machine as I cannot imagine I'm the first to encounter this 'problem'. Ah 
well, it's not a big problem, I can make the changes myself within minutes 
whenever I have to debug utils.c.

Are there any concrete plans about moving to SVN?

Philippe
