-Release notes for GStreamer 1.0.0
 
-The GStreamer project is pleased to announce the very first release of the
-new API and ABI-stable 1.x series of the GStreamer multimedia framework.
+Release notes for GStreamer 1.0.1
 
-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.
 
-Major improvements include: more flexible memory handling; extensible and
-negotiable metadata for buffers; caps negotiation and renegotiation mechanisms,
-decoupled from buffer allocation; improved caps renegotiation; automatic
-re-sending of state for dynamic pipelines; reworked and more fine-grained pad
-probing; simpler and more descriptive audio and video caps; more efficient
-allocation of buffers, events and other mini objects; improved timestamp
-handling; support for gobject-inspection-based language bindings; countless
-other improvements.
+The GStreamer team is proud to announce a new bug-fix release
+in the 1.x stable series of the
+core of the GStreamer streaming media framework.
 
-Most of these changes involve the GStreamer plugin API. The application API
-has changed comparatively little, and most applications should be fairly easy
-to port to the new API. There is a porting guide available.
 
-The GStreamer team would like to thank everyone who helped bring this release
-about, whether by submitting patches, reporting bugs, testing, sponsoring
-development, attending hackfests, or simply supplying moral support.
+The 1.x series is a stable series targeted at end users.
+It is not API or ABI compatible with the stable 0.10.x series.
+It is, however, parallel installable with the 0.10.x series and
+will not affect an existing 0.10.x installation.
 
-This is the end of a long development process, but also the beginning of
-one. This release does not mark the pinnacle of perfection, but the point
-where the team is content with the API and stability and quality of the code
-base in general, especially compared to the old 0.10 series.
 
-There will be bugs to fix, and starting from this release there will be
-distinct bug-fixing and feature development cycles, with the goal of getting
-bug-fixes out quicker and unencumbered by other more risky changes. See
+The 1.x series has been reworked for more flexible memory handling, improved
+caps negotiation and re-negotiation, better handling of dynamic pipelines,
+and increased performance in general. It also features countless other feature
+additions and enhancements.
