We're about to switch the whole of GStreamer to git soon, I think it <div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> would be nice if we could centralize OABuild alongside GStreamer in the same repositories. We already have a jhbuild module there.   Tell us if you're interested, and other GStreamer hackers/devs can also raise their voice if they're against/for that idea, </blockquote></div> I think it's a good idea to centralize OABuild along GStreamer in the same repository. The problem is that the OABuild "method" requires changes in the code of some plugins. A posible solution  is to use preprocesor directives  as these changes just affect to 3 or 4 plugins. Besides this methods requires external depencies (GLib, xvid, x264, oil, etc..), that cannot be complied with Visual Studio and must me complied with mingw/msys.  This is not a big problem as they can be added in the OAbuild module.
