  > if you know a method for making these streams available in an open and free format, please holler. At least one person was upset by the inclusion of embedded flash objects. Perhaps a trivial solution to this exists.
  
  I wasn't "upset". I just asked for it.
  
  I tried ffmpeg2theora, but I had no success. But that's the tool, which is most promising. — Perhaps it works with another step between it.

  If you have a Windows machine available (I really haven't) maybe the following text may help you: http://www.illiminable.com/ogg/enc_theora_graphedit.html

  I can almost swear that I saw a download option in GooTube, but maybe it was just Google Video. I just can't seem to find it anywhere. Yesterday, for example, I tried to find something that would suit you better.
  
  “Upset” was probably my poor choice of words.

  Note that the Novell Boot Camp is something else entirely than the Kernel Boot Camp we organized, which was an internal training session only; they are completely unrelated.
  
  Some information about the Kernel Boot Camp can be found if you follow the link from this comment.

  Oh, and note further that John only refered to a single session not meeting his expectations content-wise. I won't go into details, as that would be impolite. But for a week packed with trainings, that's very good.

  Lars, I hope it wasn't impolite to mention this and yes, I am aware that the guy in the video was referring to a single session/day. I did not know that the 'bootcamps' were separate altogether. I never knew about them at all, until very recently.
  
  In any event, let the readers judge these for themselves. Personally, I was underwhelmed by the videos.
  
  Best wishes.

  > I could not help noticing that Francis Giannaros, who persistently defends Novell in our blog, has left a comment there already. I cannot help but wonder if he does some ‘leg work’ for SUSE.
  
  This Conspiracism is getting to the point where it's really just creeping to Paranoid Personality Disorder (specifically, where it's persecutory paranoia), which is serious enough. Just take a look at your next statement: "You can no longer trust anything you read".
  
  It's not like I'm anonymous and you don't have any information on me; I'm also not the only one, just one of the only ones posting here. We did have #opensuse-fud open at the original time nearer the deal, and it was closed for some time, but we've opened it up again now, so feel free to join us in there for discussions.
  
  I post on this site quite a bit because I've got it in my feed now. I knew of its existence before, but /. comments, and a few in ##linux actually suggested that they take all the headlines on here to be completely true (without doing research), so I thought I'd provide another perspective for people. If there is a problem with that, please let me know though.

  Perhaps you should edit the article after Lars comments?

  Marcus, thanks for suggesting this. I hope you find the changes satisfactory.
