Monkeymedia, Gnome, Gstreamer

[George Farris <george gmsys com>]

Sorry to ask this but I'm not sure what the relationship is between
Monkeymedia and Gstreamer.  It seems that gstreamer provides an API into
multimedia audio and video.  Monkeymedia seems to provide another API
into audio.  Why is it necessary?  I seem to be missing something here.

Is there a diagram of the currently proposed Gnome media framework
somewhere on the web?

Thanks.
