It depends. The OpenFX is well suited for compositing as well as editing.

I have heard of OpenFX. I haven't properly looked into it, but it does seem powerful.
@alcomposer Hmm I wonder if that would require reverse-engineering (and I assume it's Mac-exclusive). There's obviously documentation for writing FxPlug plugins but it's less clear about hosts (perhaps it provides enough information to write a host either way).

@itsmattkc I have used FxPlug for GLSL effects. The developers at www.vuo.org have released an OpenFX wrapper for their real-time software Vuo. Very cool. But I believe it was quite a lot of work.
I don't think FxPlug will give Olive anything that it doesn't have already. OpenFX however is very exciting, as there are already many fantastic professional plugins.
