RELEASE: GStreamer Core and Plugins 1.0.8



The GStreamer project announces another bug-fix release for the new
API and ABI-stable 1.x series of the GStreamer multimedia framework.

The 1.x series is a stable series targeted at end users. It is not API
or ABI compatible with the 0.10.x series. It can, however, be installed
in parallel with the 0.10.x series and will not affect an existing
0.10.x installation.

1.0.x is our current bug-fix only release series released from the 1.0
branch in git, while 1.1.x is our current development series released
from git master where bigger code changes may happen and new features
and new API is added.
