dear list,

as briefly announced beginning of this year we have been working and on 
a collaborative server platform for video production based around the 
xml project file output of cinelerra - so to say a subversioning of the 
cinelerra project files.

we (that is http://dek.spc.org / http://www.bitnik.org & 
http://www.deptford.tv) presented a sneak preview last year at the open 
video conference in brussels, see:
http://osvideo.constantvzw.org/collaborative-online-video-workshop-notes/

now at open video conference new york we presented the first working 
prototype, so to say an alpha version as cinelerra server:
http://openvideoconference.org/schedule/ (in the slot a narrative for 
openness)
& here:
http://www.openvideoalliance.org/wiki/index.php?title=Hack_Day
as a hands on workshop to our case study running the system, which can 
be found here: http://edit.deptford.tv

it was great to meet many of members of the cinelerra community at the 
open video conference in new york & it would be great to take the 
discussion around cinelerra (lumierea) server further.

for anyone interested in the current setup of our server, please see 
http://www.cinelerraserver.org which is currently pointing at our wiki, 
but if the interest is there, could also become an stand alone webpage...

all the best,
adnan
