+Release notes for GStreamer Plugins 0.7.4 "For Great Justice"
+
+   The  GStreamer  team  is  happy to announce a new release in the 0.7.x
+   development  series  of  the  GStreamer streaming-media framework. The
+   goal  of  this  release  series  is to stabilize towards a 0.8 release
+   series  which  will  be  part  of the GNOME 2.6 releases and hopefully
+   eventually KDE 4.x.
+
+   The  0.7 series is a development series and is aimed at developers. It
+   is  NOT  API  or  ABI  compatible with the stable 0.6.x series or with
+   other  releases in the series. This means you can not use this release
+   to  upgrade  your  current  GStreamer  installation  and  expect  your
+   GStreamer  applications  to  keep  working without a recompile. It is,
+   however, parallel installable with the 0.6.x series.
+
+Features of this release
+
+     * Compatible with gstreamer 0.7.4
+     * Reworked pad negotiation
+     * Internationalized plugin elements
+     * Reworked  error  notification  with  translated error messages and
+       additional debug information for developer feedback
+     * Updated Dutch and French translations
+     * Reworked clocking
+     * Audio sinks synchronize to timestamps
+     * Added marshal and enum headers for libraries
+     * New Ogg demuxer
+     * New Theora decoder
+     * New trm (musicbrainz) element
+     * New switch element
+     * New rfb (remote framebuffer) element
+     * Updated quicktime demuxer
+     * Updated SVQ3 decoding
+     * Updated playback library
+     * Updated flushing from gnomevfs source
+     * Updated X and Xv image sinks
+     * Updated audio conversion elements
+     * Updated flac tag handling
+     * Updated dvdnav element
+     * Updated mplex element
+     * Lots of bugfixes
+
+Known issues
+
+     * MPEG video playback needs to be updated, it doesn't work reliably
+
+Download
+
+   You  find  source  releases  of  gst-plugins  in  the  [14]gst-plugins
+   download directory.
+
+GStreamer Homepage
+
+   More    details    can    be   found   on   the   project's   website,
+   [15]http://www.freedesktop.org/~gstreamer.
+
+Support and Bugs
+
+   We use Gnome's bugzilla for [16]bug reports and feature requests.
+
+Developers
+
+   CVS   is   hosted  on  cvs.freedesktop.org.  You  can  [17]browse  the
+   gst-plugins repository. 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.
+
+Applications
+
+   As  mentioned  there are some changes in API/ABI between the 0.6.x and
+   0.7.x  releases.  Many applications will probably be source compatible
+   between  0.6.x.  and 0.7.x however. [18]Rhythmbox and [19]Sound Juicer
+   for  instance  work very well when compiled on 0.7.x. GStreamer Player
+   does  not  work  across  releases  however, so we will make a separate
+   release of gst-player with the needed fixes for it to work with 0.7.x.
+   This  release  contains the core fixes we were waiting for to port the
+   player over so expect a gst-player release in the near future.
