I thought someone might like the challenge and could put in a few hours each week (before and after "aging" plugin gui mods would serve as a guideline).<br></span></span></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><span title="Linux / C++ beginner / student"><span><br></span></span></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><span title="Linux / C++ beginner / student"><span>Response from Ernest Ibarra was "he was interested" and had a "</span></span>Mac Pro with Ubuntu and also had 3 years of C++ knowledge". Pointed him to the Manual on how to build CinGG and he sent me a screenshot showing a built version. So I assumed he was able to do a build which would mean he had to have done a compile??<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Ibarra was paid $400 a week for 4 weeks just to experiment with coding but by the end of the 4th week he reported "having a really hard time compiling" just the plugin. I suggested he do a full compile with his modifications in (since supposedly he had compiled the whole program at least once, right?).<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Ernest Ibarra stopped replying to my emails after 4 weeks of PayPal payments by June 28th. Finally on July 19th, after receiving another 2 weeks (total $2400) I asked Ibarra to send me the code that he could not get to compile so I could compile it myself but never heard back. BIG DISAPPOINTMENT -- should not 3 years of C++ be enough for a competent programmer to work on a very small part of Cinelerra? So I am closing BT #62 as being a HUGE FAILURE -- at least with Ernest Ibarra.<br></div></div></blockquote></div></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Ow!
