I think Pinnacle really need to turn their attention to Linux. All the gstreamer stuff with gnonlin means half their work is done for them. I think the effort required on their part for the development would be worth it by the amount of people willing to pay for a good video editor on Linux. Also now oems are preinstalling Linux they really need a nice editor. All the old prejudices about 'how can you develop for 2 toolkits' and 'which distro do I develop for' just isn't a problem any more. Make it monolithic like Google Earth / Picasa etc. or just open-source a small part of the front end so people can write their own front-ends. -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
