Do you remember Diva? I remember 2 years ago when I saw those fabulous
demos I was blown away what this video editor can do in 0.1 release!
The bad thing is that the developer burned out and wasn't willing to
work with GStreamer community in fixing issues gradually but wanted
something that JustWorked. So he said he will switch multimedia
framework from Gstreamer to something else but that was the end of the
project AFAIK.

How did I remember this dead project? I went to Fedora Google Summer
Of Code Ideas page and saw there an idea about non-linear video editor
[1]

Is there any chance somebody resurrects this project?

Yeah, I remember Diva, that's a great movie. I just saw it again a few weeks ago. Je n'aime pas les escaliers!
