DeVeDe Slackbuild for Slackware 13

I've only been using Slackware for a few days and I couldn't be happier with it. Excuse me for not know too much though!

I managed to get DeVeDe going from the Slackbuild for 12.2 (I think I got the actual source from slacky.eu for some reason), and it seems to be working fine. But why isn't it listed for Slackware 13? I guess this question is more out of curiosity than anything else. Is it normal? Is there a better program for burning a DVD straight from .avi files?

Are there other sites to get packages that are as easy as Slackbuild?

The following entries were not checked at all for 13.0, as we simply ran
out of time to do them. We know that some of these were likely
mentioned on the mailing list, but we were too busy trying to get
everything ready for the release of 13.0. Sorry for the inconvenience,
but maybe we'll be ready for new submissions pretty soon...

multimedia/devede: Removed.

I'm sure if someone wanted to maintain the SlackBuild and resubmit it, it might be re-included.

Newer versions of DeVeDe require newer GTK libs than what is currently included in Slackware 13. The DeVeDe programers/website do not retain the older source for the release that works with Slackware.

Alien Bob and Robby Workman maintain some of their own scripts and prebuilt packages.

Well that makes sense, thanks!
