-GStreamer 0.3.2 "Do-B-day" released
-
-Release Notes
-
- The GStreamer team is happy to announce another release of the
- GStreamer streaming-media framework. GStreamer now contains close to
- 100 plugins for reading, writing and manipulating audio and video. We
- are rapidly approaching a stable set of libraries. Our sample
- applications are, however, still under development.
-
- We now have a gst-all module prepared that includes all of our source
- modules in one easy-to-compile package.
-
-Future Plans
-
- Our goal for the next release is stabilizing and improving the current
- feature set of GStreamer further, including introducing an improved
- autoplugger module for even better handling of media formats. We will
- also focus more attention at our media player sample application as
- this is the application most users and developers probably will use to
- get aquinted with the framework.
-
- For help building GStreamer, take a look at our build help document.
-
-Updates and Enhancements
-
- * new capabilities negotiation system
- * xml support bugfixes

- http://gstreamer.net/.
-
- GStreamer is hosted on SourceForge, so support requests and bugs may
- be filed as usual. Interested developers of the core library, plugins,
- and applications should subscribe to the gstreamer-devel list. If
- there is sufficient interest we will create more lists as necessary.
-
- We are still looking for people with access to Solaris, HP-UX, Irix
- and True64 that would be willing to try building and testing
- GStreamer. Patches fixing such problems are also more than welcome.

+Release notes for GStreamer Bad Plugins 1.6.0
+
+
+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!
+
+
+This release has been in the works for more than a year and is packed with new
+features, bug fixes and other improvements.
+
+
+See
+http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/releases/1.6/
+for the full list of changes.
+
+
+
+"That an accusation?"
+
+
+No perfectly groomed moustache or any amount of fine clothing is going to
+cover up the truth - these plugins are Bad with a capital B.
+They look fine on the outside, and might even appear to get the job done, but
+at the end of the day they're a black sheep. Without a golden-haired angel
+to watch over them, they'll probably land in an unmarked grave at the final
+showdown.
+
+
+Don't bug us about their quality - exercise your Free Software rights,
+patch up the offender and send us the patch on the fastest steed you can
+steal from the Confederates. Because you see, in this world, there's two
+kinds of people, my friend: those with loaded guns and those who dig.
+You dig.
+
+
+This module contains a set of plugins that aren't up to par compared to the
+rest. They might be close to being good quality, but they're missing something
+- be it a good code review, some documentation, a set of tests, a real live
+maintainer, or some actual wide use. If the blanks are filled in they might be
+upgraded to become part of either gst-plugins-good or gst-plugins-ugly,
+depending on the other factors.
+If the plugins break, you can't complain - instead, you can fix the
+problem and send us a patch, or bribe someone into fixing them for you.
+New contributors can start here for things to work on.
