Hi and sorry for the late reply (I only check the mailing list once in a while),

What I can tell you now is that most developers who care at least remotely about GNOME have switched to Fedora during the last 12 months. This includes a significant portion (but not all) of pitivi contributors. In the end, Ubuntu (+multiverse) and Fedora (+rpmfusion) are very much alike in terms of packaging. Pitivi developers will continue to maintain the PPA packages for Ubuntu, because Ubuntu does not provide anything but security updates after the release (unlike Fedora which provides continuous updates to Pitivi and are typically friendly to upstream). > I am going to try and fix my LMDE installation when I have more time > but, if I end up needing to reinstall, I may install something else.

I personally run gnome-shell (you may be surprised at how many people do). That being said, the desktop environment you run shouldn't make any difference to Pitivi. If it does, I'd be curious to see that. > I should also note that my LMDE breakage is not that big of a deal as it > is my new computer that I hadn't put anything important on, yet.

You may be happy to hear that the next version of pitivi should have much better playback performance (see the various news on the pitivi website). We haven't switched to GTK3 yet, but that will happen (soon, hopefully). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ For Developers, A Lot Can Happen In A Second.
