Although the approach is great I have some questions:

– Is there any available footage besides the compressed clips? In a quality that really could be included in an alternate production? And how could this be financed?

– How many people are allready involved in the transciptions? Why is the Wiki so heavily spammed?

My general impression is that still problems of truly cooperative production are underestimated. This project is a fantastic opportunity to study the difficulties of expanding the free software paradigm to other domains of human creativity and production.

My special approach to this is to emphasize on the necessity to standardize and agree on general procedures that make it easier for produsers to take part. I completely understand that this is still an enormous task, and that the glass is not empty any more , but it also is not full yet.
