I understand, and will honor your request. Thanks for asking this 
politely. What about putting them in that other repo, I guess you feel
mostly the same about that?

I really want to see gstreamer-plugins-bad in that other repo as it adds 
QT support (which cannot be in FE in anyway because of patent issues).

Since afaik a lot of work has been done on QT support lately, maybe an 
other option would be to move QT support from bad to ugly, or to patch 
the repo-that-must-not-be-named ugly version to add QT support?

Or what about a bad plugins package for that other repo with only the QT 
plugin in there?

I'm looking forward to hear from you.

Thanks for the input & Regards,

Hans
