Okay, will do that! There's one tricky issue, though, and that's that google is currently still blacklisting krita.org... Only when that's lifted do I really dare to release.

I've also got a small list of websites that might be interested, like blendernation myself.

Sure. Take care though. This is a tricky document, and I should have done it in Scribus to start with. I started in Words, then couldn't figure out a way to make the layout I wanted work, so I went to lowriter, which had its own weird things, like picking up ordinary paragraphs for the table of contents...

Yes, though that's down atm, since we are doing the website redesign.

Sure, I can send you a copy (or two) -- could be fun to leave one of the videos on loop at a booth :-)
