That deadline is definitely too close. I'm not a dev but I hang with them
almost every day and run pitivi git. Many issues from 0.13.3 are solved in
the git version. (See

...but, in my humble opinion, it's not progressing fast enough at the
moment. Unless expectations for new features are low. I'm quite worried
about a backlash from users that want fancy transitions and effects, for
example (but this may take a long time before it gets implemented, judging
from the state of things).

A list of criteria that would define what 0.13.4 would surely help,
especially in evaluating what can and cannot be done in that timeframe...
I'd then be able to provide a more insightful prediction. but I have my
doubts that a new release could be done within 2 weeks especially if it
means "more high profile features such as transitions/effects/revamped
rendering dialog/etc".

On the other hand, I don't think 0.13.3 would be supported for 3 years
(since the project can pretty much only afford to support last stable
release + the dev version), so I'm unsure what to do here. I don't want
0.13.3 to be the version shipped with Lucid, but time is short.
