This week… 2032 commits, in 167 projects, by 243 happy hackers (and 355 were translation commits).

Luis de Bethencourt unified the encodebin-based transcoding of Rygel, so each transcoder then simply has to provide an encoding profile and not have to create the static pipelines etc.

Kristian Rietveld started implementing a CoreText backend for pango, to be used on Mac OS X 10.5 or higher.
Peter Bloomfield removed the usage of GConf in Balsa.

Richard Hughes added named color profile support to gcm-viewer.
Matthias Clasen got to improve struct packing for many objects of glib and GTK+.
