Of course you can continue doing the videos but it seems like because you can't speak in 200 languages we can't link it in the help files. Having English only would interfere with locale teams (I'm still unclear how but I'm no expert there and one of the experts has guaranteed me that such a link would have dire affects on the community).
So let me reformulate it a bit differently. First Robert, thanks a lot for your contributions. What we do not want in localised version is content in en_US language. Even if the sound is translated, UI still will be in English and it's very difficult to focus on what you learn when all what you see is in a foreign language. >> >> So what you could do is just create a youtube channel and post the videos...obviously visibility would be substantially less but, that's where we are. There are lot of other ways to advertise content created by the community. For example post each uploaded video to a twitter dedicated account linked to a FB and G+ pages, post to the documentation blog, etc >> >> You could then create a wiki somewhere useful that links to your videos. >> That's another possibility and link it to the site >> Wish I had better news - I'm still looking into the possibilities but right now there seems to be a big blocker in getting such a cool addition to the product. Yes for the product, that does not mean it's the only way to give visibility to Robert's contributions.
