The freeze was this year for most DDs a bad timing :(
As discussed with the release managers, getting in mlt git head isn't a 
big problem atm, it fixes a bunch of bugs and the diff is not so big.

This kdenlive version has got a quite long release time for 0.7.8..
It would help me very much, if kdenlive could get released (feature 
freeze) so that I might upload 0.7.8 for Squeeze.

btw:
Debian Squeeze comes with some more enabled encoders per default, 
namely: h263, h263p, mpeg2video, mpeg4, msmpeg4v1, msmpeg4v2, msmpeg4v3

This makes mlt, kdenlive, openshoot etc more useable on a pure Debian 
system.
