Samuel, if this turns out to be "one of those nice ideas that isn't going anywhere just because no one is working on it", would you mind if I took over management of it as a part of my IEG project? I might also be able to get others involved who are already interested in the video project, like Anna Koval (cc'd here); we'll need a place to feature the videos anyway, and if that site is available, maybe we could use it if that's ok with you?
