Mrinmayee,

Some things that would help would be if you could give us an idea about the 
following:

1. What are these patches adding?  Are they adding new components?
2. If new components are being added why not create a separate project for them 
so that it is easier to work on moving them along with different releases of 
gstreamer?  Basically split out the "base" gstreamer and the new elements.  
This way if another group wants to look at supporting a different gstreamer 
version your changes are isolated from the gstreamer base.
3. For patches against gstreamer elements what is the plan/schedule for pushing 
those patches up to the gstreamer mainline to minimize what is being carried?

This basically boils down to what is the roadmap tomorrow to being ready to 
adapt to new gstreamer releases and reduce this patchset?  What is the plan for 
handling migrations and is a consolidated code base the easiest way to do this?
