Hi all, First of all a big thank you to the video team for covering debconf 13 and making debian users around the world accessible to the various challenges before Debian, both on the technical aspect as well the community and governance aspect as well. I was not there but from the videos I was able to understand some of the things that I'm interested in Debian.
http://meetings-archive.debian.net/pub/debian-meetings/2013/debconf13/ I further would like thank all the subtitle makers as it's pretty hard work. If I'm not mistaken it takes 10x times the size of the video for the subs. to be made. http://meetings-archive.debian.net/pub/debian-meetings/2013/debconf13/subtitles/ I do have a suggestion to make here. Is there a possibility of people adding their email to the specific subtitles that they have made ? The reason being in case if there are any simple spelling mistakes or some suggestion to give, it is always nicer and easier if there is an individual email id or (better yet) a team mail id so everybody is able to have nicer/better subs. Lastly, having a team id would also make it easier to ask/request for English subs. for specific videos. For e.g. 1013_Hardware_support_in_Debian_stable.ogv . It would be great if it's possible for somebody to make English subtitles for it. The thing is many a times (at least here in India) when we share videos from minidebconfs, for many people (including me) at times you lose what the other person is speaking because of the accent and lots of time people do get tuned out. Having subs. synced with the video and dialog makes it that much easier to pause and stress on some point or the other the presenter is/was sharing in his presentation. I have tried making subtitles before and I suck at it. I specifically suck at time synchronization which is probably the most important aspect as well as not being a native speaker so at times some words escape me. Anyways, thank you again to all the organizers and the team and a Merry Christmas. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com 065C 6D79 A68C E7EA 52B3 8D70 950D 53FB 729A 8B17 _______________________________________________ Debconf-discuss mailing list Debconf-discuss@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-discuss
