The answer is we generally don't do upgrades on stable branches unless there 
is a very good reason (for example, a security bug where it is more practical 
to just upgrade to a new version for the recipe instead of trying to backport 
patches to the existing version).

Specifically regarding gstreamer 1.2, I'm not too keen on the idea of upgrading 
it in a stable branch - I've been told that there have been backwards-
incompatible changes since 1.0; if that is the case it wouldn't really be 
appropriate. FWIW, the option as always is open to add the new version as a 
separate layer on top of dylan.

Cheers,
Paul
