It did. I even tried to check the member list (which is private). It seemed highly unlikely though.

MacPorts was involved, by your attacks on it, and by the fact you were calling out people on their public behaviour. It's sad that this exchange has undoubtedly been annoying most of that ML's members but so be it (my sincerest apologies, though).
feepk was of course excluded (and is now) as he is only sideways involved as far as I'm concerned. If you consider I pissed on him, well, that says more about you than about what I did or didn't do. I apologised to him for apparently having irked him.

Really, it was actually starting to get funny...

not.

I'm not going to hold my breath though. Just my emails.

I see many ways in which it'll all be better. I won't package VLC, there's no point to that. I will however, ne vous en déplaise, keep working on phonon-backend-vlc (which builds and functions OOTB, to date) and for that I will, ne vous en déplaise non plus, propose a port:libvlc . We'll figure out how to get there without your help, don't worry about that, but it will most certainly be announced or discussed on MacPorts mailing lists.
