Jens Gecius has just dropped out of the Debian new maintainer process, citing time constraints. That means he's no longer maintaining his packages, and I have agreed to adopt them. Which is a nice turn: I'm happy to maintain them, and I'm very happy that someone did the initial packaging while I only had to review it (I sponsored the uploads up until now).
I'm now the proud maintainer of the dvtitler, kinoplus and timfx source packages, all three being collections of plugins for Kino (a digital video editor small and functional enough for my needs), containing effects, filters, transitions and so on. I'm not viscerally attached to them, though, so if anyone wants them more than I do, just ask.
Now if the udev, sysfs and ieee1394 drivers authors could sit around a table and fix things so that the appropriate raw1394/video1394/dv1394 device nodes appear in /dev when I plug in my DV camcorder, that would be even nicer. I'm currently having to reboot to Linux 2.4 to grab the video out of it and send it back.
