Another Summer of Code project - VideoEdit

[Roberto Fagá]

Hello list!

Following all students new threads, I'm starting this to discuss
anything about my proposal for Summer of Code. To tell a bit about me,
my user profile could say much more [1]. I'm also starting my
Mastering in Ubiquitous Computing [2], capture and access, in
watch-and-comment paradigm, a paradigm which studies the user process
to watch videos/anything else and comment about, and studies how to
capture the comments and share them with anyone else.

My activity proposed is VideoEdit [3], which I already wrote an entry
in OLPC wiki. It's about a video activity to allow users to edit and
comment videos (recorded by them or just got from anywhere else). This
activity could extend Record activity, but I really don't know, it
looks like will turn Record too much complex to use. Or this activity
could be view as a Video Player with edit/comment options.

Now I want suggestions and criticisms about this project: Has the XO
sufficient libraries or could have for this activity? Is it better to
extend Record activity? Has any other activity that does this (and I
didn't find in wiki)? Feel free to edit the wiki entry!
