Hi John, Welcome among us.
You help is welcome also in this moment. And thanks a lot for the explanations, that's right that we have not a good utilisation of our management 's bugs plateform. Your cleaning is falling down at the good period with our future plans. Like this, we will have a better management/view of the bugs, wishlist, Question,... Oh I should introduce me : I am Olivier Girard (french) that you know me better as Cenwen. Best regards. 2011/6/16 John Volk <[email protected]> > Hello all OpenShot Developer, > I would like to introduce myself to the team.
