Really, honestly, though, I'm sick and tired of the unending negatative energy directed at the wiki (and, in fact, seemingly everywhere Maemo-related these days) by people who are totally willing to go on endlessly about how crappy and useless it is but totally unwilling to invest the slightest bit of time helping to improve it.
I never ever said the Wiki was useless, I said it wasn't suitable for beginners.

The maemo.org wiki is obviously a very great resource for people who are experienced users, and wikis in general are extremely useful in that context (we have a behind-the-scenes wiki on All About Symbian to plan upcoming articles).

I'll tell you what I'll do, hopefully this will keep everyone happy:

I'll do a Maemo School on my own on some totally separate site, using videos like ITS. I'll start it when the next Maemo device comes out.

Those videos will be embeddable by anyone who wants to embed them, including maemo.org.

If you want to use my videos in the wiki and add your own text annotations then you'll be able to do that.

End users can then make up their own mind whether they want to access the videos through my site or the maemo.org wiki.
