Another +1 on the ideas, the video particularly, here - and with the idea of staggering the publishing of these blogs and videos. @Roberto - the idea of a short video interview with extension developers, is this something you are considering on any kind of recurring basis? I quite like the idea, and maybe even mix in one of the core devs, should, or when, the opportunity presents itself. Anyway, it's easy for me to 'say'..
