Any reason not to use e.g. /net/sourceforge/harrier/gstd or /com/ridgerun/harrier/gstd or somesuch? As I see it, what you're exposing is basically an API of some sort, and just like we wouldn't be keen on seeing third party libraries expose API in the GStreamer namespace (not to mention use our domain as origin of some sort), I don't think we'd be keen on this for a dbus-based interface either. But maybe that's just me. Cheers   -Tim Tim, I am trying to take of the world, one name space at a time. /com/ridgerun/gstreamer/gstd is fine with me - great advertising.  If for some reason gstd gets wider adoption, then I will vote against changing it for compatibility reasons.  Since we don't have any deployment yet, I figured it was a good time to ask.
