Hello folks!

We are excited to announce the release of version 0.4 of VideoCutTool [1].
VideoCutTool helps users to edit videos in commons and also converts MP4 videos on the user's device to Wikimedia Commons accepted formats (i.e WebM/OGV) and upload/re-upload them to Commons on-the-fly.

In the last few years, we have been tirelessly working to improve our tool and we believe that VideoCutTool will help you enjoy your video editing experience! Special thanks to our team Pratik Shetty, Hassan Amin, James Heilman, Jayprakash, and all the volunteers for their contributions!
