It all works, but it limits Linux processes to a mere 512GB of virtual
address space. Such limits are irksome to the kernel developers when the
hardware can do more, and, besides, somebody is likely to release a web
browser or office suite which runs into that limit in the near future.

Release notes for GStreamer gst-plugins-ugly 0.10.2 "Season to Taste"

GStreamer: Release notes for GStreamer Ugly Plug-ins 0.10.2 "Season to
Taste"

The GStreamer team is proud to announce a new release
in the 0.10.x stable series of the
GStreamer Ugly Plug-ins.

The 0.10.x series is a stable series targeted at end users.
It is not API or ABI compatible with the stable 0.8.x series.
It is, however, parallel installable with the 0.8.x series.

"When you have to shoot, shoot.  Don't talk."

There are times when the world needs a color between black and white.
Quality code to match the good's, but two-timing, backstabbing and ready
to
sell your freedom down the river.  These plug-ins might have a patent
noose
around their neck, or a lock-up license, or any other problem that makes
you
think twice about shipping them.

We don't call them ugly because we like them less.  Does a mother love
her
son less because he's not as pretty as the other ones ? No  - she
commends
him on his great personality.  These plug-ins are the life of the party.
And we'll still step in and set them straight if you report any
unacceptable
behaviour - because there are two kinds of people in the world, my

Release notes for GStreamer gst-plugins-bad 0.10.1 "Slimy - yet satisfying"

GStreamer: Release notes for GStreamer Bad Plug-ins 0.10.1 "Slimy - yet
satisfying"

The GStreamer team is proud to announce a new release
in the 0.10.x stable series of the GStreamer Bad Plug-ins.

The 0.10.x series is a stable series targeted at end users.
It is not API or ABI compatible with the stable 0.8.x series.
It is, however, parallel installable with the 0.8.x series.

"That an accusation?"

No perfectly groomed moustache or any amount of fine clothing is going
to cover up the truth - these plug-ins are Bad with a capital B.
They look fine on the outside, and might even appear to get the job
done, but at the end of the day they're a black sheep. Without a
golden-haired angel to watch over them, they'll probably land in an
unmarked grave at the final showdown.

Don't bug us about their quality - exercise your Free Software rights,
patch up the offender and send us the patch on the fastest steed you can
steal from the Confederates. Because you see, in this world, there's two
kinds of people, my friend: those with loaded guns and those who dig.
You dig.

This module contains a set of plug-ins that aren't up to par compared to
the rest.  They might be close to being good quality, but they're
missing something - be it a good code review, some documentation, a set
of tests, a real live maintainer, or some actual wide use.  If the
blanks are filled in they might be upgraded to become part of either
