Thanks, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.songbirdnest.com\/\">Songbird<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fluendo.com\">Fluendo<\/a>!<\/li>\n<li>A bunch of plugins hit the <a href=\"http:\/\/webcvs.freedesktop.org\/gstreamer\/gstreamer\/docs\/random\/moving-plugins?revision=1.11&#038;view=markup\">quality standard<\/a> and graduated from the Bad collection to Good and Ugly. Helping to improve the plugins in the Bad collection is a great way to get involved!<\/li>\n<li>OpenGL support became sophisticated enough to warrant its own module, and <a href=\"http:\/\/webcvs.freedesktop.org\/gstreamer\/gst-plugins-gl\/\">gst-plugins-gl<\/a> was born.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There are, of course, lots of other changes &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/gstreamer.freedesktop.org\/releases\/gst-plugins-good\/0.10.7.html\">check<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/gstreamer.freedesktop.org\/releases\/gst-plugins-bad\/0.10.6.html\">it<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/gstreamer.freedesktop.org\/releases\/gst-plugins-ugly\/0.10.7.html\">out<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Tomorrow evening, Jaime and I&#8217;ll be landing in Belgium for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fosdem.org\/2008\/\">FOSDEM<\/a>, which is going to be awesome. I&#8217;m a big fan of our community gatherings and getting to meet up with y&#8217;all. I was sort-of looking forward to giving a talk with some other GStreamer guys on Sunday in the GNOME\/CrossDesktop devroom, but confusion over whether I said we would or not means the slot has been filled. We may still end up doing something on Saturday instead, will have to see.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;re planning on checking out Brussels during the day on Friday, and then meeting up with everyone at the pub on Friday night.
