Hi,

I'm not sure I understand how farsight, kopete and gstreamer work together. 
Why does kopete need to use gst directly (or indirectly using those bindings) 
if farsight already does it? (I have to admit I did only look at the farsight 
homepage.)

A binding of gstreamer to C++/Qt/KDE is of course usefull to a greater 
audience. Putting it in playgound/multimedia could be a good idea. But as 
soon as you start using it in kdenetwork it probably has to go to kdelibs or 
kdesupport (if it goes into kdesupport you need to do your own releases - 
which could be usefull for gst bindings).
