+
+<div class="news-date">Thu Oct 28 2004: </div> <p class="news-text"><a
+href="@PACKAGE_URL@gst-polyp-0.1.tar.gz">Version 0.1</a> released</p>
+
+<h2><a name="overview">Overview</a></h2>
+
+<p><tt>gst-polyp</tt> is a <a href="http://www.gstreamer.net/">GStreamer 0.8</a> sink for the <a href="http://0pointer.de/lennart/projects/polypaudio/"><tt>polypaudio</tt></a> sound server.</p>
+
+<h2><a name="status">Status</a></h2>
+
+<p>It ist tested and works quite fine with Rhythmbox. However, there's much room for improvements:</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>There is no source for recording yet, only an output sink.</li>
+ <li>The polypaudio stream clock is not yet exported to the GStreamer API.</li>
+ <li>The latency information is not yet exported to the GStreamer API</li>
+ <li>Volume manipulation via the GStreamer API is not yet impemented</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2><a name="documentation">Documentation</a></h2>
+
+<p>There is not much to say. Just install this software, the driver is than available as <tt>polypsink</tt>.</p>
+
+<h2><a name="requirements">Requirements</a></h2>
+
+<p>Currently, <tt>gst-polyp</tt> is tested on Linux only.</p>
+
+<p><tt>gst-polyp</tt> was developed and tested on Debian GNU/Linux
+"testing" from October 2004, it should work on most other Linux
+distributions (and maybe Unix versions) since it uses GNU autoconf for
+source code configuration.</p>
+
+<p>Obviously <tt>gst-polyp</tt> requires an installation of
+<tt>polypaudio</tt> (version 0.6) and <tt>gstreamer</tt> 0.8.x.</p>
+
+<h2><a name="installation">Installation</a></h2>
+
+<p>As this package is made with the GNU autotools you should run
+<tt>./configure</tt> inside the distribution directory for configuring
+the source tree. After that you should run <tt>make</tt> for
+compilation and <tt>make install</tt> (as root) for installation of
+<tt>gst-polyp</tt>.</p>
+
+<h2><a name="acks">Acknowledgements</a></h2>
+
+<p>None so far.</p>
+
+<h2><a name="download">Download</a></h2>
