Developers
-CVS is hosted on cvs.freedesktop.org.
-All code is in CVS and can be checked out from there.
+GStreamer is stored in Git, hosted at git.freedesktop.org, and can be cloned from there.
Interested developers of the core library, plug-ins, and applications should
subscribe to the gstreamer-devel list. If there is sufficient interest we
will create more lists as necessary.
Applications
-Applications ported to GStreamer 0.10 include Totem, RhythmBox, Sound-Juicer,
-Gnome Media, Flumotion, Amarok, Jamboree, Pitivi, Istanbul, AnnoAmp, Elisa, and others.
-Let us know if you want to be added to this list.
+Various applications have early ports to GStreamer 0.11 including Totem, RhythmBox,
+Webkit, Jokosher, Transmageddon and others. We're working on porting more applications.
