Re: [school-discuss] OpenOffice tutorials repository

On  tutorial production: ck out
http://www.debugmode.com/wink/
it's freeware for win if you're interested in getting OOo on Win as well.

I use xvidcap for my vids of *nix apps.

I would try to enlist a local university with plenty of b/w and storage 
to host your tutorials. I'm working on a deal like that now for my 
students vids.
