When the UKteam first met at the Linux World Expo there was a consensus that it would be extremely useful to have a series of tutorials which demonstrated basic functions and tasks which new Ubuntu , indeed any community, members would benefit from [1]. Following that discussion AlanPope[2] utilised a series of tools and procedures to create an example of a Screencast. This work by Alan and other members of the UKteam can be viewed here http://quickones.org . Whilst there are other similar efforts from the community the UKTeam would be intersted to know if other Locoteams are currently working on or have implemented similar projects. We are very interested in looking at how these screencasts could be redubbed for other languages and further to this Alan will be working on documentation which detailing how to create and deliver the screencasts. Clearly it will be appropriate to look at translating the completed documentation for other locoteams. So our questions are threefold and Id appreciate being able tie up contacts between the UKTeam and other Locoteams in regard to this project.
Questions: 1. Are there currently any other Locoteams who are doing a similar task ? 2. Are there any Loco teams who would be interested in translating the documentation , and possibly redubbing / recreating the screencast ? 3. Is there any topic which other Locoteams feel should be covered ? Matthew East will be contacting the documentation team to discuss how the Screencasts can be utilised and I will be contacting the Local Linux publications here in the UK however if there are other english speaking publications in your own Loco Team community which you feel should be contacted then do let us know since it would be a great opportunity to put these out on magazine coverdisks.
