I agree with the general plan as described above.
As an additional reason for waiting before going to GStreamer 1.0:
being able to use the GStreamer SDK (http://gstreamer.com/) would make
our life easier on Windows, but it still targets 0.10.

This leads to a more general discussion about our release schedule, or
lack thereof (my fault). I've been thinking about this, and I'll
shortly post something to the main mailing list, which is probably
better suited for such a topic.
