Absolutely I'd love to see more of these sorts of things put on

I don't want to be mean towards VSI but the information that comes out has been lacking the depth I think people might be wanting probably because they are text based where-as this style is video / auditory and involves two way communication which allows for a lot more information to be exchanged

I wish I could attend the boot-camps but it's on the other side of the world to me and no employer I work with would sponsor me nor give me the time to attend, so I instead have to put tin cup in hand and resort to begging for any feedback / the kind gestures of those who release their talks to the public

I'm also very mindful that putting these things on takes money and takes people's time. It can be awkward to be the one always asking for this or that versus being in a position to contribute to all those involved making these things possible

I didn't know that ogg vorbis format was video. I have only used it for music and that was many years ago when I looked into lossless music formats (along with monkey format, ape from memory).

So so so grateful for this type of stuff being made available - thanks
