This is the GStreamer plugin for mp3 playback extracted from the
gstreamer1-plugins-ugly package.

Are there any other parts of gst-plugins-ugly which we can include as a
(slightly) more complete gstreamer1-plugins-ugly-free?

There are five plugins under gst/ with actual code:

* asfdemux: demuxer for Microsoft's Advanced Streaming Format
* dvdlpcmdec: Decode DVD LPCM frames into standard PCM
* dvdsub: DVD subtitle parser and decoder
* realmedia: RealMedia support
* xingmux: add Xing tags to MP3 files

And the following plugins under ext/ which just wrap other libraries which are,
or could be, in Fedora:

* cdio: read CD audio with libcdio (which is free but GPL)
* dvdread: access DVDs with libdvdread (which is free but GPL; note that there
is another plugin already in gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free which uses
libdvd{nav,read})
* mad: MP3 decoding with libmad (now considered free but GPL; currently under
package review in bug 1396139)
* mpg123: just added as gstreamer1-plugin-mpg123.

There are others, but their dependent libraries are not in Fedora for legal
reasons, or just obsolete (namely, libsidplay).  Precedence is that ext/
plugins need not be removed from the tarballs even if they wrap unacceptable
libraries, since they are just wrappers.
