hello
i respect your way of thinking but i wonder if it was google who offer
to collaborate, you will say yes or not (remember it collaborates to
constrain internet, as for example in china).
anyway :)
i have other proposal.
this summer, next to barcelona, in the pirineos mountains there is a
summer camp for gnu-linux and they ask to me if you want to make a
presentation.
its comming people all over europe.
it is free entrance.
here is the call for participation
http://associacio-aoe.org/scg/en/index.php/Call4participation
if any of you come to make the presentation, as a thank to the
developers, i offer a room to stay a week in the center of barcelona (as
many as 4 people, since i have not more room).
it will be my way to thank to people that develops cinelerra and lumiera.
you could visit hangar (cultural center,
http://hangar.org), where they
have been giving courses on cinelerra.
i hope you decide to come since in barcelona is growing a cinelerra
community and give to me the oportunity to give thanks to you.
:)
