Please read my response to jderose. Novacut has 0 lines of released code and he is doing things like soliciting donations of $5000 for a BBQ where you have to pay for your own flight. I'm sorry, but as a long time open source user and small time contributor, this doesn't sit right. dmedia is good stuff, but novacut still has 0 lines of released code until he proves me wrong.

SEJeff,

Please stop saying Novacut has zero lines of code... it's not true. Yes the "novacut" project on Lauchpad has very little code. But Novacut the project has cranked out code at a breakneck pace the last year.

This would be a better response:

"Jason, thanks for working so hard to bring industry leading, ground breaking Media Asset Management to the freedeskop! PiTiVi can use dmedia also, a huge win for everyone!"

I could have put dmedia internal in "novacut", in which case "novacut" would have many lines of code. I was nice enough to split it out into a separate component so it can be easily used by other projects.

Cheers,
Jason
