[RELEASE] GStreamer 0.6.2 "Wild Rover"

In preparation for GUADEC and pub singing, we released 0.6.2.

As for more info and bugs fixed, here's some info you might like:


                     GStreamer "Wild Rover" 0.6.2 released

   The  GStreamer  team  is  proud  to announce an updated version in
the
   ABI-stable 0.6.x series.

   At  this  point  in  time  GStreamer  is fully functional for
creating
   audio-based   applications,   as   shown   by   applications  such 
as
   gnome-sound-recorder,     [1]net-rhythmbox,     [2]sound-juicer   
and
   nautilus-media.

   The  video part is known to be somewhat less functional than the
audio
   part,  but  applications  such as [3]gst-player works very well, and
a
   port of [4]Totem is in progress in GNOME CVS.

   We  will  also be releasing a development 0.7 release series, in
which
   we  will  work  on  such  things  as the remaining issues, such as
the
   interactivity  support  which is needed for DVD menus and SWF
(Flash).
   This  means  developers working on apps needing these services can
use
   the  0.7  series  for development and then enable 0.6 support as
these
   additions  optionally  get  backported to 0.6 once they are stable
and
   work well.

   The  GStreamer  applications we ship all check for both
gstreamer-0.6,
   gstreamer-libs-0.6  and  gstreamer-play-0.6; if those aren't found
the
   0.7  version  of those files are checked for. We suggest anyone
making
   GStreamer-based apps do the same.

   We are starting to have a really nice collection of applications
under
   development using GStreamer. If you are looking for something
specific
   check out our [5]applications status page.

Support and Bugs

   We  use [44]Gnome's Bugzilla for bug reports and feature requests.
The
   "product  name"  is  GStreamer  (capital  G).  Please do the
following
   before writing a bug report :
gst-feedback &> feedback 2>&1

   and  attach  the  file  "feedback" to your bug report, so that we
have
   some information useful in the debugging process.

Developers

   GStreamer  is [45]hosted on SourceForge. All code is in CVS and can
be
   checked  out  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.

   We  are  still  looking  for  people  with access to FreeBSD,
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.
