First thing first, make sure you have read https://manifesto.kde.org/
commitments/ and https://manifesto.kde.org/benefits/

Then you need to find a sponsor and this mailing list is indeed the right place 
to do that. I think someone from the Kdenlive team with whom you already 
interacted (e.g. jk) would be the best for this task. In none of them has the 
time, I can probably also help.

Then create a sysadmin request to move your repo to the KDE infrastructure:
https://phabricator.kde.org/maniphest/task/edit/form/2/

And ask to get a KDE developer account in https://identity.kde.org  so you can 
keep your git write access to your project ;)

Cheers,
Carl
