<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>I would like to know if drupal.org might consider coming up with a
process of some sort for having people donate videos for documentation. I
wanted to raise it first here on the docs list to see if this has already been
discussed before (in a concrete we could do it this way or a "no"
from infra) and what the feeling is about if/how we would do this before I even
bothered raising the issue with infra. I have seen some discussion around it in
the archives but nothing really substantive in terms of implementation ideas. I
know that certain "sanctioned" videos for each new upgrade say are
made available and apparently the dojo screencasts will be hosted by d.o but
those are pretty controlled circumstances.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>My main thought behind looking at this is because of the desire to keep
as much drupal help here at d.o rather than splintering. There seem to be a
number of individuals that have created video tutorials on Drupal but they are
all off the main d.o path. My organization is going to let me give any training
videos I create on the job back to the Drupal community but they don't want to
host them (or even really be associated with them once released - long story).
So how do I give these back to the community? One option is to open up the
drupaldojo sites to host them but I don't see that as being a good solution,
due to bandwidth issues (since individuals are hosting these sites) and the
whole splintering issue again. I guess each time I create one I could go to
infra and ask them and see what they say, but well that seems tedious for both
myself and infra and doesn't really help with what to "do" with it in
terms of the handbook even if infra is willing to host on the d.o server.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>So, if we were to propose something to d.o about this, what exactly
would/should be the parameters? In saying "about this" I mean that
instead of just individuals asking for videos to be hosted if they think to
ask, that we actually come up with a standard process for people to submit
videos and even advertise the fact on d.o. Is this an idea worth pursuing at
this time? How would it "integrate" into the existing handbook?
