FYI. This will cause problems with some services depending directly on the gstreamer backend, Any volunteer welcome, as Amarok is one of the main projects depending on well maintained backends. Let's not repeat history.
Harald: FWIW, you should also send this to kde-devel@ and kde-core-devel@, as this is important for KDE as a whole, maybe detailing the needed work Regards, Myriam ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Harald Sitter <sit...@kde.org> Date: Mon, Sep 23, 2013 at 4:55 PM Subject: looking for phonon gstreamer maintainer To: "For discussion of multimedia (sound/video) issues under KDE" <kde-multime...@kde.org> Ahoy, since everyone who ever was/is/wanted to be Phonon GStreamer maintainer is either busy or has no interest in it, the backend has as of right now no actual maintenance. If anyone wishes to step up and move the backend forward now is the time to do it. I'd like to note that this is not a one-man job though and I am going to continue to be supporting developer. In the unfortunate case that no one is willing enough we will have to look at the possibility of moving the backend out of the support scope, leaving Phonon VLC as the only actively supported backend on all platforms. As immediate result I will likely have to demote the backend's initial preference for the upcoming 4.7.0 release below Phonon VLC's.
