Hi Thomas,

according to https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/roadmap the release is overdue.

Phoronix does not mention a release date:
http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=VLC-3.0-Still-Being-
Developed
http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=VLC-3.0-2016-Update

Since 2014-02-25 we carry a "big fat warning" about know issues with vlc:
https://git.busybox.net/buildroot/commit/package/vlc/Config.in?
id=e33019aaa0409e35b725dddffe09e3e2a42959d1

Recently I thought about removing it but now I suggest to keep the warning 
and bump vlc to its git master branch to free the way for ffmpeg 3.0 ;)

Regards, Bernd
