libgnome is still done, GtkBuilder is done, GtkStatusIcon also happened.

playbin2 is done (now requires GStreamer 0.10.20).  The metadata reader code is still
using decodebin.  Switching to decodebin2 offers some interesting possibilities, as
does the tagreadbin element that's currently under development.

done, as previously mentioned.

nothing much happening on either of these.

The current state is more or less (actually, just more) what I wanted to get done
for the next release, so I'm going to release 0.12.2 in about a week.  Here's a
prerelease:  http://www.gnome.org/~jmatthew/rhythmbox-0.12.1.91.tar.bz2
