Dear all,
I'd like to get started on preparing the free culture disk and fixing the few issues we had last year (file formats, better content, hosting/repository).
While I believe the people helping to make it happen are still available to help, I was wondering which platform/site would be the best to host, manage and distribute the project? Our requirements are simple: - free bandwidth - discussion channels (list or web based) - easily accessible from all over the world (if possible) - large size file storage (DVD size) - version control system
So suggestions and experience on the matter definitely welcome.
Suggestion make it a DVD that can also select & play like a normal commercial DVD connected to a TV. I found ours would only view on a computer. So though I'd also brought one of those car players with 2 screens ((the kind that strap on car seats to keep kids in the back occupied normally) It wouldnt play. & the people demoing various Linux & BSD didnt want to sacrifice their PCs just to play it. (We had originally hoped to play stuff on an umanned desk between Linux stand & BSD stand). We could have even piped it from that device into a projector in a spare lecture theater we had available (Id have been prepared to risk my player device unattended) - but none of us were about to leave our laptops unattended in a remote room.
