Thank you Laura for continuously caring about the videos even after your internship ended! Thank you Paul for giving your nice, calm English voice to the videos and in general your video-knowledge.

Hi Laura, > Yes, sure! I also agree that it is important giving credits :) > Would you mind asking them if they want to have their name there? I have made a start and pushed a new CREDITS file to the repository. There are entries in the list for the contributors that I know about (thanks, Ricardo!) but I suspect that there has been more work done than I am aware of. Would you like to take a look and fill in the gaps? I have seen the names of Gabor and Bjorn in the logs, for example. Best regards, Paul.

Re: Documentation videos are being uploaded!
Hi All, > Kudos Laura & Paul! > I am cc'ing Paul :) It is good to hear that the end result is being well received :) I am thinking of adding a CREDITS file to the repository, primarily to acknowledge the help given by the sound engineer. The use of the studio equipment and the editing work made this part much easier than it would otherwise have been. Also, if all the other contributors would like to add in a record for their work on workflow design, scripting, slide production and so on it would help future contributors understand how the videos are made. Best regards, Paul.

Yes, I have not forgotten about the coloring task, but I also wanted to finish them ASAP. Another pending task is creating the subtitles.

Laura Lazzati writes: > Having more topics to cover with videos is great! We should need to > change the 3 min constrain, please :P I think the 3 min constrain is necessary to make sure the videos are focussing on the essential. If we find that 3 mins isn’t enough for a topic, then the topic may be segmented into smaller topics. For people like me, watching a video requires a leap of faith: will this be a waste of time? Will it be 3 minutes of introductions that I don’t need, followed by 2 minutes of shout outs to friends, and end with 2 minutes of variants of “smash the subscribe button” …? Will this be a seminar-style talk that I need to pay close attention to? At 3 minutes the cost of a bad or irrelevant video is very small to an interested person. If by 30 seconds the video fails to indicate that it’s going to address what the person is looking for the loss of time is still acceptable. Yes, the same can be said for 3:30min, 4mins, 4:30mins… which I think are valid durations when the topic requires a little more time and cannot reasonably be split into smaller chunks. But let’s try to aim for 3 minutes. -- Ricardo

I also felt that this was a tad slow, probably because I’m not used to hearing all of the punctuation read out. I’m impressed with the audio quality and the sync, considering that this was done based on timing information and not recorded all together; looks like the workflow really works in practise. I’m looking forward to even more videos :) -- Ricardo
Re: Documentation videos are being uploaded!
Hey Hey! Thanks for the compliments to everyone :) Working with Paul during the last months has been great and Gábor, Björn, Ricardo and Ludo had played a very important role while I was an intern too ;) . And also some Guix folks. Ok, let's keep the 3 min constraint for future videos and maybe split them into several, like we did with the ones that needed more time? Like I said, I will answer back when all the videos are uploaded, but if you take a look before that you will see some of them before that. Regards :) Laura

Laura and Paul have done an excellent job. When I originally drafted the project I wasn’t sure if and how we’d bridge the gap between idea and watchable video with narration, but you worked around all of the little problems that come with translating an idea into an actual workflow, which is really great. -- Ricardo
Re: Documentation videos are being uploaded!
Seconding Tim’s sentiments :) I think the videos will be fantastic resources for newcomers and Guix enthusiasts in general, and we can’t thank Laura, Paul, and everyone else involved enough! I for one can’t wait to find some free time on my hands to binge-watch the whole series.

I'm not a native English speaker, and I also though it was a bit slow, but also thought the pace could help other people, so I really don't mind. And I find Paul's voice very clear; I think it will make it easy to understand the videos.

Re: Documentation videos are being uploaded!
Hi Guix! Thanks for the feedback, I didn't expect such a long thread of mails and being happy with them :) As regards Paul's voice, I believe it depends on each person. For me it is a little slow but also very clear and kind of calm. And I guess the timing is based on the recordings that I did with my voice, so sorry for that :/ Like Gábor said, this is a temporary upload for the community. I will be uploading the next videos ASAP, they are already made and they exist, but I want to polish the matching of the CLI session videos as much as possible with the audios. Picky Laura. I'll let you know when I finish uploading all of them. Having more topics to cover with videos is great! We should need to change the 3 min constrain, please :P Regards :) Laura

Thank you so much for seeing the videos through to completion. It’s very exciting to have such high-quality materials available to the community. :) I have one little suggestion. The part where Paul reads the URL feels very slow to me. I think it could be a touch faster without losing any clarity, and that speeding it up a bit would improve the rhythm of the video. That being said, I am a native English speaker, so maybe the slower pace is helpful for those who don’t normally speak English. How hard is it to change? What do others think? Otherwise, it’s awesome. Thanks again! -- Tim

Re: Documentation videos are being uploaded!
Wow! I want to see these topics: - disk partitioning on guix system installation (manual lacks detailed info) - how to learn guile - how to get rid with configuration file - how actually read guix errors and where to look for more info (I really had not learnt this yet) - config.scm examples for xfce, gnome, wpa-supplicant, touchpad, keyboards, multi-users, samba service, postgresql service, web-server and so on - how to configure kernel or use own kernel in guix. Do you want to discuss such content with somebody?

Hi Guix! I have created the site: https://archive.org/details/guix-videos where I will be pushing the documentation videos that I created during my internship and that Paul helped a a lot sharing their voice and knowledge about video creation to enhance them. I appreciate feedback :) Regards! Laura
