--- Comment #1 from Olivier Crete (Tester) <olivier.crete at ocrete.ca> 2014-06-05 21:27:01 UTC ---
In gst-plugins-bad, we never guarantee compatibility, so it is generally not
safe to use libraries from -bad outside of it. In core and -base, we always
guarantee compatibility, so that means that we only add fields at the end of
structures that are never stack allocated and otherwise we put padding at the
end of the structure for future extension.
