Although not a developer, I am an avid user and talk often to the devs in my role of "Walking-Talking Advertising Agency" of KDE projects. We once discussed incorporating Natron as a KDE project to assist with its development: https://phabricator.kde.org/T12801 Natron is already made with Qt, and suffers from an acute lack of resources and development is slow. We also discussed the possibility that Kdenlive took over the maintenance of Natron. Not integrating it, but developing a tighter compatibility between both applications, like you see in Adobe products. This was part of a larger vision of developing a "Kreative Suite", which would broach Krita and Kdenlive (both already part of KDE), along with Enve (animation software), Scribus and Natron, all of which would have to be incorporated. Devs at the time pointed out they were already stretched to the limit with Kdenlive, which was a good reason not to do that. And, of course, they were right. But if Kdenlive were to add more devs and acquire more resources from KDE (which is something that seems to be on the cards), the circumstances would be different. How about we bring this project back to life? (Don't hate me Farid!)
