Tomeu, thanks for bringing this idea up I again - I wish I had a cent for every time I've discussed such a project with someone. (Then again, I deserve to pay a penalty for never following through...)
While I'd love to work on something like this my other commitments realistically won't allow me to do this anytime soon. However I would assume Wayan and Yama (CC'ed) would also be okay with making such an interview a regular feature on olpcnews if that were deemed useful;-) I'd also suggest experimenting with different media, it needn't always be a text interview. After some practice it should be reasonably easy and quick for someone to compile something nice based on a Skype audio or even video call for example.
