Hi everyone!

I have solved an error on Ubuntu 11.10 by adding a new dependency to our
Debian packaging: *gtk2-engines-pixbuf*.  This package prevents all sorts of
"pixbuf" theme engine errors when OpenShot launches on some desktops
(specifically Ubuntu 11.10).  Also, I have updated the "Sync MLT
0.7.4-3<https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mlt/+bug/848573>"
bug report with *pbuilder build logs* and *install logs*, and subscribed the
"*Ubuntu Release*" team to it.  Hopefully, I have done everything correctly
to get a feature freeze exception for MLT.  I have also emailed the *LaunchPad
Translators* mailing list asking for additional translation help.  Since
yesterday, they have completed 4 additional languages!

Of course, once we release OpenShot 1.4 (scheduled for this Friday,
September 23rd... but possibly Saturday, September 24th), I will submit
another sync request w/ feature freeze exception for OpenShot 1.4.  The
ultimate goal is to have MLT 0.7.4-3 and OpenShot 1.4 both in Ubuntu 11.10
when they launch on October 13th.

If you are a member of the *OpenShot Developers team*, please help us test
and reply to this email with your results.  We have 30 active members, and I
fear not many are actually helping us. =(  This can be our greatest release
ever, but we need lots more testing in these final 3 days.

Don't forget about the new *Daily
PPA*<https://code.launchpad.net/~openshot.developers/+archive/daily>.
 It's a perfect way to test the newest release.

Thanks,
-Jonathan
