reverting to ancient gstreamer, good time to implement change control?

Excellent, we should do that and retarget the more involved work for the
next release.

We don't have a maintainer for the 8.2 build branch at the moment, so
it's not trivial to do this.  I think Michael is planning on continuing
to just use Joyride as the stream that will produce 8.2, until we get
a new (or acting) build master who has time to maintain two trees.

Thanks,
