[Kdenlive-devel] Howdy. How can I help?

[Gus Scheidt]

This looks like something I can tackle, though I have very little
Blender experience, and I'm not a Python developer, so I don't know if
that will slow me down.

Just to clarify, the KdenParse tool creates an equivalent EDL file
from a kdenlive project file, which is the desired functionality.  But
there are some issues that prevent the EDL file from being loaded
properly by Blender.  These bugs need to be worked out.  Is this
correct?
