Original commit message from CVS: Re- set up the gtk-doc system. I'd managed to mutilate it a while back, but now it's fixed. I'll put a copy of the HTML output somewhere on the website tonight. In order to actually generate the docs, you'll have to install all the DocBook tools, as well as gtk-doc from GNOME cvs. (see http://developer.gnome.org/arch/doc/tools.html) Notes (I'll codify these some day): - Don't believe the Gnome page, always edit the SOURCES when documenting a given function, never the tmpl file. - I'll be re-arranging things a lot, but gtk-doc is smart enough to merge any changes to the tmpl file. However, gtk-doc's merge and CVS's diff are two entirely separate animals. We should probably have a virtual mutex on the entire docs/gst/ directory, over and above what CVS does. - I'm going to try to end up with a book set (docbook terms), where docs/gst/ is only one book. There'd be another called docs/manual/, and another docs/plugins/, etc. If you have any comments as to how these should be done, gstreamer-devel is the place.
This is gnome-streamer, a framework for streaming media in GNOME. The fundamental design comes from the video pipeline at Oregon Graduate Institute, as well as some ideas from DirectX. It's based on plug-ins that will provide the various codec and other functionality. The interface hopefully is generic enough for various companies (ahem, Apple) to release binary codecs for Linux, until such time as they get a clue and release the source.
