Hello P.P, Welcome to the project! I see that you have some experience with Youtube? We have a few videos on Youtube, but these were individual efforts, nothing cohesive. One of the challenges (and opportunities) of large open source projects like this is to coordinate and enforce branding and common look and feel. I wonder if there is anything that could be done to define the standards that would enable other volunteers to produce Youtube content to a common look and feel? I'm thinking of elements like standardized titles, music and voice over intro, common tool set, etc. Essentially a cookbook that other volunteers can follow to create a professional "Apache OpenOffice"-branded video.
