[gst-devel] Binary registry - Re: gst_init usage

[ensonic]

hi,

the binary registry patch still needs several things:
* handling url-handlers
* support for mmap-less systems

I feel it would be good if we could add the binary registry {c,h} files to
cvs and only keep the patch that enables it in bugzilla. This would help
the joint work on the implementation. Would that be okay?
