Fork it and leave the old one behind.

They should have done this to the kernel way back when.

It's an awesome free AV editing sw pkg. For a free program it is exceptional.

Well you've obviously used more packages more often and have a definite informed opinion.

Audacity got what I needed done well enough and its free.

As far as the same feature sets, I kind of expect that to some degree.
