VLC Browser PlugIn for 0.9x??!!

Dear Team, dear Community,
As a lay man I am happay and grateful for the great work done here providing the best player for all plattforms!
Nevertheless, since the release of 0.9x the Browser PlugIn package for at least Mac OS X is missing, and even more funny replad by a message basically stating: do it yourself! I'm sorry guys, but me as thousand others out there have no clue how to do this and also no time to learn!
In the beginning i hoped that this Issue would be solved with the next small update of 0.9.x, but now several updates went without the corresponding Plugin for Browsers!
To put it frankly, the VLC PLayer is becoming gradually useless if no plugin is provided, and I, as many others will be forced to consider switiching to some other software solution!
So please, could the developers INCLUDE the Browser Plugin in the Updates???!
Thanks a lot for the great work, please continue as you guys used to do before this funny development! Millions of Non software specialists using your Software would be grateful!

I second this. A 0.9.x plugin would be much appreciated.

In case that you are a developer, who's capable of doing this, you are welcome to help us :) [1]

Anyway, the browser plugin won't return for the 0.9 series, but rather likely for VLC 1.0 (to be released next spring). Always keep in mind that VLC is mostly developed by volunteers who work on what they want to work on...
