Quoting: rkfgCan't watch the mrdeathjr's video from Russia and Germany, too. Is it available at least somewhere? I think it would be better to upload it to another, less restrictive hosting. Or just torrent it.

Thanks for users for advise

Similar situation occurs for lego the movie where cinematics can block video in all countries if pass cinematics, video can pass without problem

Curiosly pass still dont have any profit from channel, in my case my channel dont have any profit (this is usefull for posible shows songs in audio without troubles)

And now them put block related with some songs one is this

Take Me To Heaven - Laibach: 11:34 - 15:06 and this Kameraden, wir kehren Heim! - Laibach: 46:22 - 47:54

Other issue stay in apparently begin content in 1:38 - 2:10

But affect australia and other close territories case new zeland, fiji, salomon islands, cook islands and others

In this moment stay edit for remove this problematic songs, hopefully youtube leave make this edit without issues

Update

Video is visible again, only 13 countries cant see but them countries is australia and closer islands (europe dont appear blocked)

In other things alexandre julliard give some greetings, some maintainer related information and announce first wine 2.1 development release must be appear next february 3rd

QuoteCongrats to everybody for the 2.0 release!

I'm particularly pleased with the progress we've made on fixing
regressions, I didn't expect we'd get that many. Thanks all!

The master branch is now open for development again.

I'll go through the patches that are still in the queue, but please resend any patch that had been marked Deferred.

I'll also resume the biweekly development release cycle, starting with
release 2.1 on February 3rd.

Despite fierce competition, Michael Stefaniuc once again took the
coveted job of Stable Branch Maintainer.

He'll be making regular 2.0.x releases.

I've also implemented the patch reviewer assignment scheme that we
discussed at WineConf.

From now on, patches that stay in the queue unreviewed for a week will be assigned a reviewer automatically.

The algorithm is prioritizing people who said they have some knowledge about
the area (the P: entries in the MAINTAINERS file), before grabbing
someone at random from the wildcard entry.

If you feel that there are areas where you could help reviewing patches,
but don't feel comfortable putting yourself up as maintainer, please
consider adding an entry for yourself as a knowledgeable person.

If you are asked to review a patch, and you think it looks good but
don't feel that you know enough to sign off on it, please just send a
reply saying "looks OK to me" or something like that.

I may then ask someone else to have a further look, or do it myself.

Any review helps, even without a full signoff.

Looking forward to 3.0 :-)
