i'm sorry if i didn't help with this release, but i forced myself to stay 
offline until we moved to git (and find some time for studying and 
getting back to my freebsd duties)

i have the rules ready, i just need to test them with the repository in its 
current status

well, yes. merging trunk into the current refactoring/ is probably too 
hard even for git. nonetheless i'd keep working on the refactoring 
branch in git too (i don't think we can use too many different branches 
to work on code refactoring, we must coordinate in some way), merging 
features/fixes into master as soon as they look ready. what do you 
think?

only one thing: i will have exams until sep 23. either we wait until sep 24 
for the git migration (unless i'm lucky enough to find half an hour to do 
it), or i explain to one of you how to do it

when in git, i'll be back on work on the new classes (i just felt so 
unconfident with svn). this has to be done of course in the refactoring 
branch. the cmake stuff can be merged into master, instead

and... did we talk about feature branches in randa? given the well 
proven instability of kdenlive (i'm exaggerating :P), they would help a 
lot to mitigate the problem imho

cool cool cool!

yay!
by the way, you can't imagine how many people are waiting for 0.8.2 on 
freebsd, so... think of the rest of the unix world! :)
