Hi,

first of all, thanks for analyzing all this!

That's exactly what I thought when I started reading this email!

Different people have proposed to work on such a video in the past but
it never came to any conclusion. There are installation videos on
Youtube, but nothing running on Mac for example.
So I'd now like to propose to do this with some of you - if anybody else
is interested. We can try to define collectively what exactly should be
in this video. What do you think?

Ack.

Cheers!
