I'll probably write a web page about it.   Only problem is how to use 
the tape that I always make of these sessions.  Can't work out how to 
turn it into Ogg Vorbis format for download.  Mines a Debian Sarge 
workstation with KDE 3.2 and Gnome.

I suppose it depends on your own personal tastes as to whether you 
have an interest in movie technology.  The movie industry is supposed 
to be about glamour and showbiz.  But, you can quickly get bored with 
it if it's not your kind of thing.

Robin and Gabrielle have taken a media based technical project and 
turned it into something else.  Well worth looking into.  Their San 
Francisco based presentations are supposed to be better than the ones 
in L.A.  Must be worth a short trip along the highway/freeway ?  
Driven from Mt View to SF before now myself.  It's not too far :)
