We tackled bugs affecting grouped clips, the #effects workflow, the organization of menu items, and much more.

@kdenlive @kde kdenlive is genuinely awesome, but it runs like butt on my PC. We really need GPU acceleration on everything. Premiere Pro & DaVinci Resolve can playback video at full quality with effects, Kdenlive lags when playing back at 480p without effects.

@JshKlsn @kdenlive @kde What hardware are you using in on? I had this problem on older hardware, so I can relate, but not so much on my more modern laptop (11th Gen intel, RTX 3060 graphics).

@kdenlive @kde Nice! How is Windows stability these days? I've been directing students to OpenShot but I won't cry if I can offer better.

A sprint in agile software development is simply a relatively short time period (a few days to a month) in which a set amount of work is supposed to be finished.

You're probably referring to a 'crunch', although the overtime is (supposed to be) paid.

"Sprint" is a project management term that describes a focused effort on specific goals, not extra work. It could have been extra work for them, but it would be unrelated to the fact that it was a Sprint.

To add to this: Kdenlive team members are volunteers and KDE is not a company. They do it because they want to do it.
