Description
The goal of this hackfest is to follow up on last year's GStreamer 1.0 hackfest in Malaga, try to fill in any gaps that are still open, and to discuss or hack on anything and everything GStreamer-related. Maybe even fix a few bugs. The target this year will be a lot more core GStreamer focused as opposed to the application focus of last years hackfest.
Agenda, goals
- GStreamer RoadMap
- Fix GNonLin for 1.x
- Fix the deadlocks and most serious bugs in stack affecting Pitivi (Jeff will provide testing samples and reproduceability)
- Make a Pitivi release (or at least a testing/preview release)
- Port Buzztard to GStreamer 1.x
- Get gst-python to a releasable state
- Extend encodebin API to allow for profile selection
- Device enumeration and monitoring API
- Hardware codecs and GL integration
- add your goals here

Venue
Costs
There is no attendance cost and the GStreamer project is looking for some sponsorship help to cover food and similar for the attendees.
We might get some companies to sponsor lunches and maybe dinners specifically, so we might go around to the usual suspects to ask for that.
Travel sponsorship
We have some limited funds to help with travel costs. The money will be allocated based on the focus of the hackfest and involvement level of those requesting sponsorship.
Current sponsors
