Grilo actually expands on the ideas introduced by MAFW, and we think it fixes many of its shortcomings while keeping the good ideas behind it. I elaborated on the reasons we had to create Grilo and what it provides to multimedia solution developers in a post when we first announced the project [1], it is an old post and some things are outdated (like the link to the repository), but the main ideas are there. I also wrote an article explaining the purpose of Grilo [2] that you might be interested in reading. BTW, I sent a paper to the MeeGo Conference in Dublin with the idea of introducing Grilo to the MeeGo community there. Unfortunately I did not get it accepted, although I did have a lightning talk on the topic. I've sent the proposal again for the San Francisco event [3], hopefully I am more lucky this time around :) I would love to see Grilo included in the multimedia stack of MeeGo, I think it would be a great tool for multimedia solution developers and we (Igalia) would be glad to work on making that possible if the MeeGo community welcomes the addition.
