The other option you have it to make a project on SourceForge.

Also I think there is this big question wether a GPL DShow filter is considered as a program or as a library. In the second case that means you should be able to use it from other projects than GPL (or GPL compatible). For example Windows Media Player is not allowed. But AFAIK you can't deny this access to different programs while the Filter is installed on the computer...

Doesn't make the DShow filter involve linking libmad with core MS libraries? Isn't this illegal under the terms of the GPL? IIRC this is what LGPL is for and mad is not LGPL is it?
