This is GStreamer 0.10.1, "Nollaig chridheil"
Changes since 0.10.0:
* element factory leak fixes
* tests cleanup
* BaseSrc seeking in other format than BYTES
* collectpad fixes
Bugs fixed since 0.10.0:
* 322441 : getcontext() in common/m4/gst-mcsc.m4 uses incorrect stac...

* 323870 : [tools] gst-feedback needs updating for 0.9/0.10
* 323882 : gst-launch manpage needs updates
* 323905 : use return val of g_list_append
API added since 0.10.0:
* GST_TYPE_STATIC_CAPS
* GST_TYPE_STATIC_PAD_TEMPLATE
* GstNetTimeProvider::active
* gst_base_src_set_format
Changes from the 0.8 series to 0.10 series:
* Refcounting and API revised for thread safety, see rules in
docs/design/part-MT-refcounting.txt
* Scheduling is now done by the elements, they start/stop
processing threads themselves. This removes the need for
a separate scheduler.
* State changes now happen from sink to source. This makes sure
that downstream elements are ready to process data when upstream
starts producing.
* EOS/ERROR/... does not change the state of elements anymore. This
means that when the application sets the state on an element, it
remains in this state.
* GMainLoop integration. Information on the state of the pipeline
is now received in the mainloop via the GstBus.
* Events move separate from the datastream, this allows for both
in and out of sync delivery of events.
* Generic _pull() replaced by _pull_region() so that random access
can be made faster.
* data passing happens from PAUSED, called the preroll phase. In this
state no data is rendered but it is queued in the sinks.
* negotiation simplified. Caps are now attached to buffers and travel
along with the datastream.
* GstBuffer is now subclassable.
* Ghostpads now look and feel like real pads.
* New Seeking/flushing policy.
* Addition of base classes and helper functions in the core to abstract
away the harder parts of plugin development.
