I love making screencasts. Any requests?<div><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Jun 20, 2011 at 2:08 PM, Matthew Turk <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:matthewturk@gmail.com">matthewturk@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">I'd be happy to help you with documenting reason; the reason I was<br>
ready to push that one off is that with a paper draft and a grant<br>
draft due before I leave, I can't write the whole thing myself. A<br>
one-three minute screencast would be awesome, too, I think.<br>
<br>
If we can close the two reason tickets, I think we should push out a<br>
release. All the other major features have either already been<br>
documented or require very little documentation, as I recall. (i.e.,<br>
"yt mapserver")<br>
