Looks that way.

Nope. I have stopped working on Kino, but someone else could take over
or fork it.

Agreed, but it was made only for DV and miniDV camcorder owners. The
foreign import function was added to let one use non-DV assets with a
DV project. I needed to keep it simple until my skills developed, and
I wanted to see good I could make it handling the unique aspects of DV
without dealing with the constraints of generic and abstract APIs.

I am helping with kdenlive now, which is multi-format/codec.
