ANNOUNCE: Pitivi video editor 0.91 released

[Jeff Fortin]

Hi everyone,
The Pitivi team is pleased to announce 0.91 "Charming Defects"!

This is the first alpha release for the new version of Pitivi based on
GES, the GStreamer Editing Services library.

It is a major rework of the entire Pitivi architecture. It includes:
- Replacing the core of Pitivi by GES; 20 thousand lines of code removed
- Porting to GStreamer 1.x
- Porting to GTK+ 3.x
- Replacing GooCanvas by Clutter for the timeline
- Automated UI test suite, with many checks for mission-critical parts
- Fixing hundreds of bugs
- Implementing many new features
- UI polish all over the place
- Refactoring pretty much the entire codebase

Since 0.15.2, over 1300 changes have been committed in Pitivi alone.

As you may guess, this gargantuan amount of improvements cannot fit in a
short announcement such as this one. Instead, you can find a more
detailed summary on http://wiki.pitivi.org/wiki/0.91

Please keep in mind that this is an alpha release, so there may be some
bugs we haven't found yet. We appreciate your feedback, so try it out,
let us know how well it works for you and report detailed bugs for
issues you may encounter. With your help, we will follow up with a beta
release and eventually a 1.0 release.
