Hi, Sorry it took me some days to answer, was sick and no energy. I am the Kdenlive maintainer, and for sure I know that we need to work on stability and regression testing. For your info, a git / patch infrastructure is provided by KDE, that should make it easier for people to provide patches: https://git.reviewboard.kde.org But it has currently not been tested yet for Kdenlive, Alberto might have some more infos on this part. > Some words to me: > I'm a freelancer (Embedded SW/HW, Windows/Linux) drivers) working now for a > big automotive > company.

Thats why I will need some weeks or so:--(((. Great. I know several users are very interested in a Kdenlive - Jack integration, and I myself have no real knowledge / interest to work on it currently. I think that all Kdenlive developers have the same problem with time, so it's not an issue. > Before doing a lot of code I wanted to know which refactoring steps are > planed: > 1) Only some basic steps to integrated unit testing or > 2) A complete Redesign of the program(Classes/Models and so on)? > Just an idea: > It seems to me that the roadmap in mantis is not maintained.

I forwarded that email on the Kdenlive-devel mailing list so that others might answer too. One idea I had for the refactoring was to create a meta-bug called "refactoring", with several children bug listing the different tasks planned for this refactoring, with a few words describing the task, so that developers could discuss how to work on it before starting changing the code. > I think thats it for the first step.
