GStreamer 0.8.10 "No Fun" has been released:

The GStreamer team is happy to announce a new release in the 0.8.x stable series of the GStreamer streaming media framework.

The 0.8.x series is a stable series aimed at end users. It is not API or ABI compatible with the stable 0.6.x series. It is, however, parallel installable with the 0.6.x series.

This module only contains core functionality. For actual media playback, you will need other modules. GStreamer Plugins contains a huge set of additional plugins. GStreamer FFmpeg contains a plugin based on the popular FFmpeg decoding library. These modules need not have the same source version as the core, as long as they are in the 0.8.x series.

Gperfmeter (gnome-perfmeter) monitors the performance of a system and displays a dynamic, graphical overview of how the system is performing. The application displays strip charts and bar charts to represent system performance for the main performance parameters.

This release is not for any official GNOME distribution. It's just been 5-6 months since I last did one.

Note that gperfmeter needs the rpc.rstatd daemon to be running on the system it's monitoring for it to work correctly. This is automatically available on Solaris systems. I've had alternative experiences on other various UNIX/Linux systems. There are also several alternate applications that provide the same functionality for the Linux platform.
