Hi Aaron,

I've been thinking a little about your podcast interview that you're
planning. It seems like you're looking for lots of information about
cinelerra. I'm not sure I'm the best guy to help with that because I've
never really been involved with the cin community.

However, I'd love to talk about Lumiera, and I'm especially well placed
to talk about the user interface because that's my area of
responsibility. The question is what are you hoping to talk about in the
interview?

Thanks
Joel
