GStreamer challenges

• Steep learning curve for both application writers and plugin writers.
• Pain of audio/video conversion (colorspace, channels, etc...)
• We need more convenience methods with added smartness.
• gst-launch-0.10 should be smarter

==> If a new developer isn't convinced in the first 5 mins, he will switch to something else

Goals:

• Make more convenience/high-level methods and API
• Remove the pain of audio/video conversion (colorspace, channels, etc..)
