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.
