+GSTREAMER 1.18 RELEASE NOTES
+
+
+THESE RELEASE NOTES ARE A PLACEHOLDER, PLEASE BEAR WITH US WHILE WE
+FINISH WRITING UP THE REAL THING.
+
+GStreamer 1.18.0 has not yet been released. It is scheduled for release
+in summer 2020 now.
+
+1.17.x is the unstable development series that is currently being
+developed in the git master branch and which will eventually result in
+1.18, and 1.17.1 is the current development release in that series.
+
+The schedule for the 1.18 development cycle is yet to be confirmed, but
+it is expected that feature freeze will be in June/July 2020, followed
+by several 1.17 pre-releases and then a new 1.18 stable release in
+July/August 2020.
+
+1.18 will be backwards-compatible to the stable 1.16, 1.14, 1.12, 1.10,
+1.8, 1.6, 1.4, 1.2 and 1.0 release series.
+
+See https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/releases/1.18/ for the latest
+version of this document.

+
+Introduction
+
+The GStreamer team is proud to announce a new major feature release in
+the stable 1.x API series of your favourite cross-platform multimedia
+framework!
+
+As always, this release is again packed with many new features, bug
+fixes and other improvements.

+
+Miscellaneous performance and memory optimisations
+
+As always there have been many performance and memory usage improvements
+across all components and modules. Some of them have already been
+mentioned elsewhere so won’t be repeated here.
+
+The following list is only a small snapshot of some of the more
+interesting optimisations that haven’t been mentioned in other contexts

+Build and Dependencies
+
+- The Autotools build system has finally been removed in favour of the
+ Meson build system. Developers who currently use gst-uninstalled
+ should move to gst-build.
+
+- API and plugin documentation are no longer built with gtk_doc. The
+ gtk_doc documentation has been removed in favour of a new unified
+ documentation module built with hotdoc. The intention is to
+ distribute the generated documentation in form of tarballs alongside
+ releases.
+
+- FIXME
+
+Cerbero
+
+Cerbero is a meta build system used to build GStreamer plus dependencies
+on platforms where dependencies are not readily available, such as
+Windows, Android, iOS and macOS.
+
+Cerbero has seen a number of improvements:

+Stable 1.18 branch
+
+After the 1.18.0 release there will be several 1.18.x bug-fix releases
+which will contain bug fixes which have been deemed suitable for a
+stable branch, but no new features or intrusive changes will be added to
+a bug-fix release usually. The 1.18.x bug-fix releases will be made from
+the git 1.18 branch, which will be a stable branch.
+
+1.18.0

+1.18.0 has not been released yet.

+
+
+Schedule for 1.20
+
+Our next major feature release will be 1.20, and 1.19 will be the
+unstable development version leading up to the stable 1.20 release. The
+development of 1.19/1.20 will happen in the git master branch.
+
+The plan for the 1.20 development cycle is yet to be confirmed.
+
+1.20 will be backwards-compatible to the stable 1.18, 1.16, 1.14, 1.12,
+1.10, 1.8, 1.6, 1.4, 1.2 and 1.0 release series.
