Last Thursday OSNews had the opportunity to meet Miguel de Icaza, founder of Gnome, Ximian and among other things leader of the much discussed, Mono project. Miguel is a talented and versatile developer but he is also a very intelligent businessman able to understand the industry on many different levels. Talking to Miguel guarantees that you are very quickly taken away by his enthusiasm and optimism and his thoughtful strategies and vision on how OSS will take over the world.

As you will be aware, things move forward in the OSS world. Kino has been ported to GTK+2, and the UI has been enhanced in 0.7.1. All the things that were missing from previous versions (like effects/transitions, comprehensive export to all major formats, including DVD, (S)VCD, and divx) are now there. The comments in the article you linked to seem to be short and dismissive and don't really analyse where the shortcomings are. Might be worth you having another look at kino to see how far it's come since you last looked. Not wanting to start a discussion, just saying that things have moved on since that article, and might be worth a revisit.
