> 
> The most important changes are:
> 
> * refactoring of several parts of the core code
> * drop SDL for video display - use OpenGL by default like Shotcut video editor
> * New file format. Kdenlive 15.08.0 can open old project files but old 
> Kdenlive versions cannot open new projects.
> * Project bin view can be changed from tree view to icon view and can be 
> zoomed.
> * Add effects to bin clips
> * New "Compare effect" feature in clip monitor allowing to split screen to 
> preview an effect
> * New Colorwheel UI for color adjustments
> * Movit GPU processing is back for display and effects, but currently requires 
> MLT's rtaudio module since sdl_audio crashes in MLT with Movit
> * New "force monitor size" feature allowing to lock monitor size to 50% or 
> 100% of profile size
> * Improved compatibility with different color themes
> * Improved compatibility with highdpi displays
> * Compiles on Mac (at least on build.kde.org) - no idea if it also runs
> 
> Known regressions:
> 
> * Video capture, stopmotion and decklink export not implemented yet (I hope to 
> fix this before release)
> * Editing clip properties is very limited (should also be fixed in the next 
> month).
> * MLT playlists / Kdenlive projects as clips not really tested
> 
> Packagers interested in providing "development" versions of Kdenlive should 
> use the master branch from now on, while the "Applications/15.04" branch is
