Yes, I know about that. I have read the 'call for developers' message on the site and corresponding thread on this mail list. It's truly sad, but. Given to [1] there are not much native linux choices to do the image stabilisation. There are transcode's stabilize plugin and y4mstabilizer from mjpegtools [2]. The latter is much simpler than transcode's stabilizer (it's one-pass only, and can't do derotation, edge filling, zooming, etc.). So, transcode's stabilize plugin is the best deshaking solution available for linux now (am I wrong?). I really liked it and therefore improve it (in very GPL way) to do my tasks even better (faster). Now I contribute back to the project. But, if the project for one or another reason can't get this contribution (e.g. no maintainer for now) - it's OK for me. I've done this job to serve my needs and I continue to use it. Moreover, I will probably package and publish my own build of transcode with my work included in launchpad's PPA, so the others could just use it. Sometime maybe, someone will took this work for another project. Or, if transcode restart, it could go there. So, regardless of will this work be included in transcode or not, will transcode ever be released again or not, I want thank you all for such a great tool. :) > However, contributions like yours should not be wasted.
