 WHAT IT IS
 ----------
-This is GStreamer, a framework for streaming media.  The
-fundamental design comes from the video pipeline at Oregon Graduate
-Institute, as well as some ideas from DirectMedia.  It's based on plug-ins
-that will provide the various codec and other functionality.  The
-interface hopefully is generic enough for various companies (ahem, Apple)
-to release binary codecs for Linux, until such time as they get a clue and

-COMPILING FROM SOURCE
----------------------
+This is GStreamer, a framework for streaming media.
+
+This package is in the 0.9.x series.  This means that this is a
+development series leading up to a stable 0.10.x series.
+You have been warned.
+
+OVERVIEW
+--------
+GStreamer is split up over a number of modules, tarballs and packages:
+
+- gstreamer:
+  The core.  It contains the main library and header files, as well as
+  some fundamental elements.  Every GStreamer project needs at least this
+  installed.
+- gst-plugins-base:
+  A base set of plugins.  This set is the set we actively keep synchronized
+  with the core and are also meant to serve as examples on how to write
+  GStreamer elements.  It also contains a number of base classes for writing
+  GStreamer elements.
+
+INSTALLING FROM PACKAGES
+------------------------
+You should always prefer installing from packages first.  GStreamer is
+well-maintained for a number of distributions, including Fedora, Debian,
+Ubuntu, Mandrake, Gentoo, ...
+
+Only in cases where you:
+- want to hack on GStreamer
+- want to verify that a bug has been fixed
+- do not have a sane distribution
+should you choose to build from source tarballs or CVS.
+
+Find more information about the various packages at
+http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/download/
+
+COMPILING FROM SOURCE TARBALLS
+------------------------------
+- again, make sure that you really need to install from source !
+  If GStreamer is one of your first projects ever that you build from source,
+  consider taking on an easier project.
+
 - check output of ./configure --help to see if any options apply to you
