Howdy Tom, Absolutely, if you want to start using it today that can happen. I saw the conversation start and have been late getting into it. Seriously, the account is ready for anyone that wants to work it - even if you just have ideas of 'exactly' what you want to see there. One item that I mentioned before, that is worth a follow up mention. YouTube supports a non-profit page status, which would make it much better for the foundations use, the web page discussing states that if you have a US Tax exempt number sign up is via a web form. I think it's worth someone, particularly someone who can knows someone in Google directly, addressing the question of a special exemption of the US requirement for TDF. Given the legal status in Germany it seems at least worth an email. Anyway, again if you want to do something specific with site, or anyone, just let me know - right now that requires shared account credentials, for a shared admin, which is acceptable for 2 or 3 people I think. The non-profit status would be the way to go however.. //drew > > > --- On Sat, 9/6/12, webmaster-Kracked_P_P <[email protected]> wrote: > > From: webmaster-Kracked_P_P <[email protected]> > Subject: Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Re: Is there a better YouTube video > collection setup . . . > To: [email protected] > Date: Saturday, 9 June, 2012, 19:47 > > On 06/09/2012 12:57 PM, Florian Reisinger wrote: > > Hi! > > > > Skipping everything to only say the most important: If I am not alone, I > > would try to do this, although I am not used to YouTube... > > > I have tried several search phrases to get only "what is LibreOffice", "about > LibreOffice", etc., and keep getting info about how to do something or some > "non professional" out-of-date video talking about LibreOffice. > > Is there a link out there of an English language video for "introducing LO" > to the general public and letting people know why it would be a good > alternative to MSO? > > There is one from "nixiedoeslinux" that states MSO is 2 years old and there > is LO to use. > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sloEMUt7n5Q > > There is a user called "LibreOffice" but that set of videos seems to show > "personal views" by a single person, not from TDF/LO. > > If the LibreOffice user is not associated with TDF, there might be some > problems with getting an "official LibreOffice" channel, since there already > is a Libreoffice "user". > > Still, I would like to find a good more-professional video that is from > TDF/LO people telling potential users why LO is a good options for them, > instead of buying MSO.
