Original commit message from CVS:
A rather large patch:
- changed the API for the padtemplates:
- remove the factories (array of pointers) for the padtemplates,
properties and caps. The static array was a nice idea but converting
all the property values to a gpointer was not a good idea.
float properties were not possible, and casting a gint to a pointer
is not very portable. The new API just uses the _padtemplate_new,
_caps_new and _props_new functions to create the templates.
This has the added benefit that the API is now uniform for static
and dynamic templates and that the code can be made cleaner.
- lots of cleanups in the way the capabilities are constructed (va_list)
- lots of updates for all the plugins (new API)
- docs updates (new API)
- removed the videoraw docs.

Original commit message from CVS:
Added --enable-plugin-docs configure option, to enable build of the plugin
documentation (currently broken).  This defaults to off.
Changed --enable-docs-build to default to on, since all other documentation
should build correctly.

Also, correct typo in manual, and fix up a couple of things in example.c

51cbf22624 This is a megapatch with the following changes:
Original commit message from CVS:
This is a megapatch with the following changes:

- moved the gchar *name to GstObject, removed the ones in GstElement and
GstPad.
- moved the parent handling completely into GstObject. This cause *all* of
the plugins to fail (except those that used gst_pad_get_parent)
- rearanged the XML save handling.
- GstObject now has a class function save/restore_thyself.
- GstObject has a generic method gst_object_save_thyself, this makes it
possible to fire a signal wehever a new object is loaded. This is needed
so we can add XML save hooks.
- GstXML API has changed slightly. You now have to create a GstXML object
first before you can actually load something. This makes it possible to
attach a signal to GstXML whenever an object is loaded. I'm not sure we
will keep this interface.
- GstObject can now print the path_string without knowing about the GstPad and
GstElement types.
- Added gst_bin_get_by_name_recurse_up to lookup an element in the current
element hierarchy.
- added XML namespaces to the saved pipelines the namespace is:
http://gstreamer.net/gst-core/1.0/
namespaces are needed to distinguish user generated XML from the core XML.

Note that the plugins still contain a macro GST_OBJECT_PARENT that will be
replaced with gst_pad_get_parent shortly.

Original commit message from CVS:
Massive build fixup.  Will send message to -devel list later with details
on the changes and what they mean for Makefile.am writers.  Check
docs/random/omega/build/TODO for a list of things that I had to make sure
of.

NOTE: this requires a complete rebuild of all plugins, since I also
changed the STATE enum to a bitfield instead of sequential numbers.
