<br>
There are some bugs in the last stable release that could do with<br>
fixing while we wait for J-B-M to re-appear.<br>
<br>
While I am not a coder, it would be a terrible waste to let such a<br>
good project die, and I will help with quality testing and bug<br>
reports.<br>

Unfortunately the git repo is not useful now, and kdenlive built from<br>
it can't edit video.<br>
