You're right, and we owe you a clear response on this.  So let's make it
clear.  I think we need to focus on youtube for a number of reasons.  We
don't really have a proper plan on how we could take advantage of
mirocommunity at the moment and I think we need to think about it some more.

GMC is a great resource and I can see it as something that I'd like to push
after the release.  Youtube has some advantages especially in terms of a
possible revenue stream, a potential large set of new users, and name
recognition.

So my vote is to drop Vimeo and GMC for now until we can come up with a plan
takes advantage of the those sites to their potential.  Otherwise we need to
concentrate one place.
