hello *, this is the mail that i will send to google SoC administrator :)
it needs more work, please modify it when it's necessary :) the deadline is mon 12/03!!!!! Q: What is your Organization's Name? A: Cinelerra CV Q: What is your Organization's Homepage? A: http://cv.cinelerra.org Q: Describe your organization. A: This is an unofficial SVN repository and community home page for Cinelerra, the non-linear video editor and compositor for Linux. Why 2 versions of cinelerra? Cinelerra is developed "upstream" by an entity (guy/girl/group) we'll call HV that is a sharing but not a community sort of entity. HV likes to work on its own copy of cinelerra on its own, releasing code on a periodical basis (every 6 months or so). Some developers decided that it would be nice to develop in a community fashion, (public svn access) but did not really want to fork (which is seen as being nasty). Basically we maintain a copy that is fairly similar to the official release, (i.e. we don't do code-tidying patches). But apply our bug fixes, compiler compliance fixes, and enhancements to the svn. We do try to send the patches upstream, (but it sucks having to apply a patch to two systems, but that's life!) Thus the CV has a number of features that the official version does not have. Q: Why is your organization applying to participate in GSoC 2007? What do you hope to gain by participating? A: 1) Interest in Cinelerra 2) More people involved in free video editor 3) improove cinelerra Yes, i need to phrase this in a better way. Q: What license does your project use? A: GPL (i'm wrong?)
