Yep, I would be happy to help out with this - Greg I was hoping you would bring the camera anyway. The two of us will be in touch about this, but if you (the list) can think of people to track down we might be able to find them and set up times. With the convention coming up in just a few days, we would really need help with getting some sort of outline. Both of us have only been using Pd for just over a year, so those of you who have been using and developing in the last few years could be a great help here.
We need to decide on some core topics to ask about - what do you guys and gals think needs to be covered in this brief documentary? I have some ideas but I would rather pose the question to the community at this point. I think it is well within our means to produce a short overview of some important aspects of Pd, or at the very least to have footage and material available when someone seeking resources needs it.
