Felix Paul Kühne
Lead Developer on VLC media player for Mac
I'm a contributor to the VideoLAN project since early 2003. You might have heard about a media player named VLC. Its 2.0 user interface is what I spent most of 2011's summer on.
You can find information about future features and current development regarding VLC for Apple platforms on my blog.
While being based in Germany's center, you can find me at various FOSS and geek events throughout the world, such as SCALE in Los Angeles, CA, FISL in Porto Alegre, Brazil, OSDC in Sydney, Australia or VDD in Paris, France.
In real life, I'm a fifth year med student. At present, I'm finishing my doctoral thesis in medical informatics. It is going to be followed by another two years of studies.

Upon using the update feature within VLC 2.0.4 I get an error that states that “The cryptograhic signature for the downloaded file ‘ VLC-2.0.5.tar.xz’ was invalid and could not be used to securely verify it. The file was deleted” I am running Win7-64bit on X86 platform.
This is a known issue with the 64bit variant of VLC 2.0.4 for Windows. It is solved in later releases. I’d like to ask you to get the update manually from http://www.videolan.org for this very upgrade.
