Work has been going on with Istanbul, a desktop recorder that outputs
Ogg Theora formatted screencasts.

I just read up on Byzanz[1], a desktop recorder also in Extras that
outputs animated GIF files.  Reportedly the files are very large, so
this may only be good for ~10 second screencasts.  Although short, 10
seconds is enough to convey a number of interesting things to people who
are looking into using Fedora.  The GIF output is targeted at people
with OSes that don't support Ogg formats natively. :)

Just throwing something else out there to look at for screencasting.
