I still think this would be interesting to people here, but now know
that the fsfe-uk list strips message/rfc822 attachments :/

Please keep seeding if you get it, its nice and legal and if you have 
the bandwidth and the inclination it will make things that much easier.

Please use the fbsa.eu if its serving up OK (the video is actually on 
tdobson.net) as tdobson appears to have more spare bandwidth.

*DVD / CD*

Anyone who wants any of the video files on CD/DVD email me I will try 
and sort it out, ditto if you want the original raw DV files (also by 
email, I think its about 10Gb).

*Language*

Its all in English, transcript to follow, no subtitles.

*About the Quality*

This was an off the cuff recording, so the quality may vary...
The lighting is bad, I have tried to correct, but hey.
The audio was a little quiet.
The battery ran out about halfway through.
I ran out of tape after about 45 minutes.

My apologies, if there is demand then next time we can plan this properly.

*Copyright*

Currently the video's are marked as copyright fsuk.org, I figured as I 
currently own the copyright and have kindly received signed consent from 
Stuart Langridge (made out to ICTSC Ltd - [thats all I had with me]), 
whilst simultaneously being a member of the fsuk group, I could, with a 
clear conscience transfer the said copyright to fsuk, and accept it on 
fsuk's behalf.  Any problems with that, contact me and I will do 
something different.  Obviously I don't want to have to sue myself, but 
if I have to in order to protect my rights I will.  (Copies of a written 
copyright transfer and Stuart's consent available at request).

Finally, I ended up picking the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 
2.0 UK : England & Wales as a license for these, again, any problems 
contact me and I'll change it if need be.

*More Info*

One more thing, As some of you know I am doing a video documentary thing 
about ODF and standardisation, as such I thought I would road test some 
of my documentary credits (specifically the first 30 seconds on this 
video) mainly because I figured if I was going to spend the time on it I 
might as well draw some benefit from it, and also because this is also 
CC licensed (for now at least).  So any comments on that would be most 
welcome, I know its not much, but I'd appreciate it.
