 * [[https://launchpad.net/~novacut/+archive/pre-stable|Novacut Pre-Stable Releases]] (for automated release testing, not recommended for any users)
 * [[https://launchpad.net/~novacut/+archive/daily|Novacut Daily Builds]] (for developers)

 * [[https://launchpad.net/dc3|dc3]] - a DBus service similar to [[https://launchpad.net/desktopcouch|desktopcouch]] (not that Dmedia now starts CouchDB itself, but we'll continue to maintain dc3 as a option for people migrating from desktopcouch)

== Novacut components on ohloh ==

'''ohloh''' is a cool way to visualize and track our progress, and there is a page for each of the 6 modern Novacut components (dc3 is basically being replaced by usercouch, so dc3 was left out):
