You're making many claims. Do you know Jeff Moe? BLAG
deliberately stays behind Fedora by a version for solid reasons.
It tries to be a slighly 'late' Fedora that just works, and it
features compiled versions of many A/V programs that aren't
available elsewhere - that's changing now, but, they were in
front of the curve in many areas for awhile.
I don't know Dan Sawyer so I can't speak to him, but there are
many Linux video writers and many claiming to do 'professional
video production' -- if he claims he's doing professional video
on Kdenlive, I would like to see that, but until I do...
I admit I'm not too familiar with BLAG or Jeff Moe, and I didn't say
anything as a fact just as my personal observation. I was on BLAG
forums and I don't see almost anything happening there, and that they
don't have dates on their posts doesn't help also :(
I'll keep an eye on BLAG a bit more. Does anybody know why aren't they
making their packages available for livna or RPM Fusion?
Cheers,
Valent.
