Currently another so called lurker, sometime contributor here: I am not for watching videos. If you have to do videos, that is fine: submit the transcriptions to the thread. Most of us read emails in seconds and we can respond just as quick.

I simply don't have time to devote to watching videos that range anywhere from 30 seconds to 30 minutes, when I could easily read/skim an email in a matter of seconds. My opinion may be a bit moot, as I'm more a lurker on mailing lists these days, but I do try to follow interesting threads to stay current on what's going on in the community, and there's a big discord for me on this topic because I can only really see half the conversation. Otherwise, as Jono says, live and let live. > BW, > > > Ian > > -- > -- ACCU - Professionalism in programming - http://www.accu.org > -- My writing - https://sites.google.com/site/ianbruntlett/ > -- Free Software page - > https://sites.google.com/site/ianbruntlett/home/free-software > -- > Ubuntu-quality mailing list > Ubuntu-quality@lists.ubuntu.com > Modify settings or unsubscribe at: > https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-quality -- Jeff Lane - Server Certification Lead, Tools Developer, Warrior Poet, Lover of Pie Ubuntu Ham: W4KDH Freenode IRC: bladernr or bladernr_ gpg: 1024D/3A14B2DD 8C88 B076 0DD7 B404 1417 C466 4ABD 3635 3A14 B2DD -- Ubuntu-quality mailing list Ubuntu-quality@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-quality -- Ubuntu-quality mailing list Ubuntu-quality@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-quality
