Hi :) I think people have already addressed everything i could think of to worry about. I don't follow IIRC so i don't know what decisions have been taken but what has filtered through to the mailing lists looks good and positive.
I worried that mp3 was the jpg of sound but i have been "reading up" about it and it seems a lot of the lossy part is beyond normal human hearing range so it's not as bad as i thought. I worried the M part might signify a proprietary format but if it is it's not owned by MS apparently. TDF shows almost no visible sign of ethnic or gender diversity. There are seldom females in the videos, there is almost no ethnic diversity or age range and no-one a natural suit-wearer or fashion-victim. There is sometimes a range of accents and languages which is the only indication of TDF's natural diversity. We alienate everyone that is not a male WASP between about 24 to 45 and wearing a t-shirt. However some of the best people in TDF are ladies; Sophie, Barbara, Jean, Hal and so on. The problem is not going to be made particularly worse by voice-overs but if the voice-overs could be done by a lady or a mix of voices then that might help.
