I've almost got 0.3.0 working. ;)  A few issues with the docs totally
not building.  Probably not the most important thing to fix right now
though.  I'll have updated packages on the site in a day or two.

What's the best thing to do about LAME support?  There are unofficial
debs at http://www.mayin.org/~gandalf/downloads/ but I suppose for
official release I should just take out the LAME plugin completely?

Also, recently a52dec was uploaded.  I've had that packaged too for
quite a while (also on the gstreamer site above) but I did it as shared
libs.  I think the maintainer is willing to hand that over and just
wanted it in for Ogle to use.  Should I build against my shared lib or
the current static only a52dec-dev lib?  (I don't think they really
conflict at the moment...)

I do still need a sponsor.  Anyone?  (mdz: still offering?)
