Oscar winning video editor goes open-source
http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/04/oscar-winning-video-editor-goes-open.html">Oscar and Emmy award-winning editing software 'Lightworks is going open-source

EditShare, the company behind Lightworks, see open-sourcing the editing application as a way to “release its full potential.“ Developers, aside from being able to enhance, build on and add to Lightworks, will also be able to sell their Lightworks plug-ins, etc through a centralized Lightworks online marketplace.

“Lightworks offers intuitive controls, advanced real time effects,2K native support
with DPX or RED, and multi-camera editing features that remain unmatched.”

Lightworks currently packs in an impressive feature set, supporting resolution and codec independent edits, unlimited multi-cam editing, a slew of professional effects – including outputting them in real-time at both SD, HD and 2K resolutions (!), support for 3rd party effects, an amazing voice over tool (which I used at University!) and, well, a TONNE more besides.

1. That's about ten kinds of awesome ...

At least it seems to be. I've never had the fortune of using it, but I've heard of it, and it looks neat. Will be looking forward to a downloadable executable.

I checked out the article and some other links, but I can't find information about the license they're going to attach. The GPL seems unlikely given how it is said they will be operating. Any idea?
