[gst-devel] Plugin-move window open.

[Jan Schmidt]

Heyas,

The plugin move request window opened yesterday. If there are any
plugins you'd like considered to move from Bad to Ugly (or vice versa)
in this cycle, you should already have filed bugs so that there's time
to review the plugins before the window closes on Friday.

Also, to clarify - only FFmpeg and Ugly freeze for this release. If
there are any plugins to move, there'll be a bad release from a branch
off 0.10.8. If no plugins move, there won't be another -bad release at
all.

Cheers,
Jan.
