- oakcodec: de-Qt all 20 sources (QThread decode loop -> std::thread,
QObject/signals -> callbacks), pure C ABI in include/codec with
refcounted neutral handles (OakFrame/OakDecoder/OakEncoder),
framemanager moved in from render, frame_to_buffer/buffer_to_frame
moved in from oakcommon oiioutils, codec->task via submit callback
(M8 will register), all cross-module calls go through the other
side's C API, -fvisibility=hidden + OAKCODEC_API
- oakcommon: handles become refcounted value structs
{ctx, addref, release, abi_version} (FFmpeg-style), pass-by-value
signatures, free() as release wrapper; init_from_native/get_native
for copyable value objects; OakCommonXxx renamed to OakXxx
- oakcommon: add logging (log_debug/info/warning/critical with level
filtering and sink injection) + printf-style oakcommon_log C wrapper
- oakrender: add CancelAtom C API family; complete
oakrender_color_processor_convert_frame; fix get_processor() missing
definition and OCIO env var lookup
- tests: oakcommon 174, oaknode 96, oakrender 42, oakcodec 18, all
green in their standalone builds

Roadmap
| Version | Theme | Core Deliverables | Boundary Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0.3 | Plugin Architecture Milestone | Production-ready OpenFX host support | Not about quantity of plugins, but "any OFX plugin loads without crashing" |
| 0.4 | Color, Audio & Performance | .cube/.3dl support, scopes (waveform/vectorscope/histogram), three-way color wheels, waveform auto-sync, BWF timecode sync, audio meters (LUFS/VU), proxy media workflow, hardware-accelerated export (NVENC/VideoToolbox), batch render queue |
Combines the previous 0.4-0.6 scope into one usability milestone: color workflow, audio sync, and 4K/8K performance |
| 0.5 | Animation, Tracking & Collaboration | Bézier keyframe curve editor, basic point tracking, image stabilizer, full multicam angle switching, OpenTimelineIO, EDL/XML import/export | Combines the previous 0.7-0.8 scope into one timeline/interchange milestone |
| 0.6 | Stability Milestone | Project file format freeze (backward compatibility promise), crash recovery, autosave, memory optimization | "Feature freeze" testing period before 1.0 |
| 1.0 | Production Ready | Complete documentation, installers, known issues list, community support channels | Declared "ready for serious projects" |
