John and Kaveh,
Hello everyone
IMHO- Only my opinion
> > I was checking the videos in http://www.gnu.org/ghm/2009/.
Great videos, and as a maintainer of packages on gnu.org through Savannah
I think these are great adds.

Yes security with all the people tiring to circumvent and find vulnerabilities
to attack software. It is great to get to know security problems and fixes etc.
The talks are about software and the maintainers of said software.

It Fits if available through torrent or on site would work.

I too think this is great. GNU maintainers and their projects are what makes
GNU, FSF a great place for software and if the maintainers want to talk about
their packages there should be an outlet for it.

Show the history of GCC, Smalltalk, etc or any of the projects is a great
resource.

Yes but isn't the documents and descriptions and use of software technical not
to mention user guides available. It is on the pages of the packages.

I don't have the say but sure would like a spot for videos like these here or
somewhere.

Yes and a great start of video on the subjects in question

Would be interesting to know what he thinks about this yes.
