    <title>Introduction to GStreamer Bad Plug-ins</title>

    <para>
      The <application>GStreamer Bad Plug-ins</application> package contains a
      set of plug-ins that aren't up to par compared to the rest. They
      might be close to being good quality, but they're missing something - be
      it a good code review, some documentation, a set of tests, a real live
      maintainer, or some actual wide use.
