Seems a good idea to me. In my opinion, the "Feedback" status should be assigned when it is not possible to continue working on the bug until some answer or confirmation is given by the reporter. > My idea was to add (as soon as 0.7.0 is out of the door) at least a "future > version", and perhaps also rename 0.7.1 to "next version".

We will probably discover some very embarassing bugs just after the 0.7 release, so it is very likely that the 0.7.1 release will only have a few new features but some important bugfixes. > > 3.

I'm probably Most distros have packages for Kdenlive 0.5, and I?think it is safe to assume that there also will be for the 0.7 release. It may take a few weeks, but I am confident that If users ask their distro, packages will appear. I am not really wanting to create statically linked packages, I personally prefer to leave the packaging job to the distros, since it integrates better with the user's system. Also, Kdenlive relies on a lot of libraries and it would be unproductive to do a huge statically linked package in my opinion. regards
