I'm unfortunately insanely short on time to work on pitivi currently, but I'm always hanging on #pitivi to answer questions. The bug-hunting-fest in question is detailed here : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBugDay/20100211 So that would take place tomorrow (Thursday 11th). > rowinggolfer has > put a ppa with git pitivi on it, maybe this would be useful for bug > hunting.

Fixing bugs, fixing bugs, fixing bugs ! And if there are trivial usability fixes, they should also go in. At this point in time, we just can't add big features except for the ones that are almost complete. Another item people might be interested in also is to write unit tests or QA testing so we don't hit regressions again.

I'm going to take a leap of faith here... and say that we need to get 0.13.4 out before the feature freeze, but that we could provide updates until final release provided we make sure > > A general a lack of information/communication tends to be causing > confusion, I am not so concerned with inclusion, but, having the > information to make informed decisions or have informed conversations.
