We are not asking anybody to switch "overnight". GStreamer 1 has been out
for over 2 YEARS! (1.0.0 was released on September 24, 2012.) We are now
finally ready to switch the whole Qt/KDE stack to GStreamer 1 in the
upcoming Fedora 21 (i.e. over 2 years later), and QtMultimedia is the only
missing piece. We won't be waiting for it (considering that hardly anything
in Fedora even used QtMultimedia at all and that e.g. Phonon now supports
ONLY GStreamer 1 in its latest release).
