* 706b26b decoder: update a deprecated function
* c753929 decoder: fix code style
* 7ea4114 build: fix the use of configure's cache
* 065d46d build: use common version variables
* df78b8c build: hard-code an unneeded macro
* 612b01b build: refactorization of dependency tracking
* 3613100 build: check for OpenGL either GLX or EGL are requested
* f7cd55f build: indent and add square braces

* 6225bc6 build: remove check for old version of gstreamer
* 32ffb8a build: remove GStreamer's parsers checks 
         (TODO: don't remove the VP9 check, since it is not merged in
gst-plugins-bad 1.6)
* 3c6eb03 build: add gstreamer-pbutils dependency
* 1ca1403 build: fix variable declaration

2) To merge the latest patches from Sree in master:

* 17412c3 vaapidecode: Fix renegotiation for resolution change

3) To merge Tim's patches

* 41b1db3 Fix some more compiler warning
* a85df93 vaapi: fix 'ISO C90 forbids mixed declarations and code' compiler
warnings

3) To merge the re-indentation mega-patch

4) merge the gst-common integration patches (aiming to branch 1.6 of
gstreamer-common)

* 11a62d1 docs: update plugin documentation
* eed5bce vaapidecodebin: fix code style
* 7cf7892 resurrect gtk-doc machinery
          (TODO: reword this commit log)
* 8a5d628 use gst-common submodule
* 0c5d4ab add gst-common submodule
          (TODO: point to its branch 1.6)
* d6e8f54 add doap descriptor

5) Bump version to ===> 1.6.0 <===

   From here we could branch out for fixes in this "stable" release, which is
the same of 0.7.0

6) Bump version to ===> 1.7.0 <=== 

7) update gst-common submodule to master
   enable VP9 decoding

8) Rename the encoders

9) Back to fix stuff, moving bugs to the new bugzilla's place

Do we agree?
