Fully agree.

In the past Krisse came up alone with Tablet School and everybody gratulate her. Now she tries to evolve that project (that was video centric sinc the beginning) within maemo.org and she is facing this stop energy from people that (perhaps I'm wrong) won't be there creating videos themselves.

Krisse won the trust with Tablet School, why not let her drive whatever she thinks is best with tablet.maemo.org? The alternative is she creating a school somewhere else.

About using the schema of Downlads yes makes sense in the mid run, but before you need around 20 videos in place. Otherwise a simple list will do.

My suggestion: start creating videos with CC license allowing modifications and brand them with maemo.org only at the beginning/end. This way they can stay the way they are or someone can come up with the modifications s/he likes. Once they are unmanageable in a single list then go for mor complex formats.

But wait... in order to start you need Maemo 5 final. And perhaps even Maemo 5 users... Nothing of this exists yet. So aren't you perhaps arguing too soon?
