Well, I certainly don't speak for all the developers... But those who use Ubuntu and Debian are the ones concerned. I'm sad to see they have not stepped up and provided a patch.
You suggested that having this done would increase the number of developers for Cinelerra. I find this hard to believe, if there aren't any developers on those distros already willing to work on integration. Sorry if this sounds unreasonable, but we all have things we would like to see done. Patching dozens of files is not one I personally plan on tackling. Consider this... It would be easier for CinelerraCV if the GPL license was applied first to Heroine's tree. To that end, someone would need to generate a patch against Heroine's sources and submit it upstream. Then it could be merged at our next release from upstream (2.2? 3.0?) Who using Debian or Ubuntu would like to step up and tackle that?
