Format conversion is my professional work, but not audio/video related :) 
But I think the main gap is the lack of documentation of the current EDL 
format. So if there is a shortlist of formats that should be evaluated, we 
should make a gap  between the current data Cinelerra needs and a more 
standardised format. Still we can project that format on the Cinelerra 
internals, Preventing that we should do a complete rewrite for another data 
model. The latter may be a clean up later.
