Congratulations. (And I hope you had backups of your data.)

To be honest, I never did any video editing. (Unless you call creating stupid 
cartoons with an animated actor program, "video editing"). The reason I 
posted this petition is because I'd hate to see such software (which is 
supposed to be good) become unavailable because it is discontinued. It's not 
something I've personally used - it's just something I believe would be 
useful.
