Hello althio,
I did make quite a few additions to the shared document,
that is a good method for consolidating ideas in one place.
I am a bit nervous about the 1 min. concept. 1 min. is not
very long, most topics are going to require a bit more than
that. Surely, we can expect the volunteer's attention span to
stretch to perhaps three or 5 min. If the videos are only 1 min.
long, hundreds will be required to cover the whole realm. Cataloging
them will be a major task and who will want to wade through scores of
video listings to find a paltry 1 min. dissertation?
Thanks, Cheers . . . . . . . . Spring

Springfield, Suzan, all, special mention to Lars, I do encourage you
to share your suggestions and experience as newcomers in the shared
document where it could be put to much better use than in the
mailing list. You have the opportunity to get involved at a very
veeery early stage of this videos project. Of course the document is
pretty rough, this is collaborative and brainstorming. Seize the
day. Make your mark.

Another disclaimer: this initiative of 1-minute videos is led by
MissingMaps. I fully support it and try to foster it but I am not in
charge. People in charge may not read or answer in this mailing
list. If you want to give feedback and ideas on this: go and edit
the shared document. Let me be blunt at this point: in the scope of
this video project, when pointed to an external document, any
comment left in the mailing list is 100 times less useful and 1000
times more likely to be forgotten.

As everything in open data and open source, don't be afraid of
making some errors. Your input will be reviewed and modified by
others, and everything will improve with time and contributions. >
The instructional materials that do exist also seem to be scattered
among many sites and documents; I have given up trying to keep
track. That statement applies to all fields of knowledge that I know
of. - althio wall of links: active contributor in the Training
