14 "Such ingratitude. After all the times I've saved your life."
17 A collection of plugins you'd want to have right next to you on the
18 battlefield. Shooting sharp and making no mistakes, these plugins have it
19 all: good looks, good code, and good licensing. Documented and dressed up
20 in tests. If you're looking for a role model to base your own plugin on,
24 If you find a plot hole or a badly lip-synced line of code in them,
25 let us know - it is a matter of honour for us to ensure Blondie doesn't look
26 like he's been walking 100 miles through the desert without water.
29 This module contains a set of plugins that we consider to have good quality
30 code, correct functionality, our preferred license (LGPL for the plugin
31 code, LGPL or LGPL-compatible for the supporting library).
32 We believe distributors can safely ship these plugins.
33 People writing elements should base their code on these elements.
36 Other modules containing plugins are:
40 contains a basic set of well-supported plugins
42 contains a set of well-supported plugins, but might pose problems for
45 contains a set of less supported plugins that haven't passed the
46 rigorous quality testing we expect, or are still missing documentation
49 contains a set of codecs plugins based on libav (formerly gst-ffmpeg)
