Patches 1, 2 and 5 look fine to me. 3 and 4 are likely a no-go. Luiz and I spoke about this a few weeks ago, and I am given to understand the BlueZ Media API has been around for a few months? While it's nice to move with the times and use the current API, I wouldn't want to leave people who are dependent on old versions of bluez in the lurch. In general, I'm fine with dropping support for dependencies that are more than a year old. Colin, Tanu, desktop/embedded packagers -- thoughts? -- Arun
