619 Changes from the 0.8 series to 0.10 series:
621 * Refcounting and API revised for thread safety, see rules in
622 docs/design/part-MT-refcounting.txt
624 * Scheduling is now done by the elements, they start/stop
625 processing threads themselves. This removes the need for
626 a separate scheduler.
628 * State changes now happen from sink to source. This makes sure
629 that downstream elements are ready to process data when upstream
632 * EOS/ERROR/... does not change the state of elements anymore. This
633 means that when the application sets the state on an element, it
634 remains in this state.
636 * GMainLoop integration. Information on the state of the pipeline
637 is now received in the mainloop via the GstBus.
639 * Events move separate from the datastream, this allows for both
640 in and out of sync delivery of events.
642 * Generic _pull() replaced by _pull_region() so that random access
645 * data passing happens from PAUSED, called the preroll phase. In this
646 state no data is rendered but it is queued in the sinks.
648 * negotiation simplified. Caps are now attached to buffers and travel
649 along with the datastream.
651 * GstBuffer is now subclassable.
653 * Ghostpads now look and feel like real pads.
655 * New Seeking/flushing policy.
657 * Addition of base classes and helper functions in the core to abstract
658 away the harder parts of plugin development.
662 * added Traditional Chinese translation
