OMAP5x Embedded Software resources

Hi,
I recently got a SVTronics OMAP5432 EVM board and I'm actually pretty excited about all the cool features this processor has to offer. Nevertheless, I have worked with previous TI platforms (DM36x, DM81x) and I noticed that the software distribution approach has changed, meaning this that there are no more DVSDK nor EZSDK packages for newer platforms. 
As far as I understand from the OMAP5 FAQ page, the official software release available for developers is
I'm looking for the so called GLSDK, since I want to work with the embedded software source code and not with higher level / OS distributions such as Android or QNX. My scope is Linux and since I'm used to find repositories available for components such as the kernel / bootloader, I was wondering if you can point me out to those repos (if available).
I found a couple of those (bootloader and kernel) posted in this forum thread:
https://github.com/vstehle/u-boot/tree/VINCENT/5432-ES2-5 (config: omap5_evm_config)
https://github.com/vstehle/linux/tree/VINCENT/5432-ES2-5 (config: omap2plus_defconfig)

What about sources for Syslink and any other proprietary software from TI?

I'm also looking for the Gstreamer plugins for this platform, can you help me getting started? I just need a small reference to start and then I can take it from there.

Regards
Diego Chaverri
