Thanks for your opinion, Max :) There are two short sound interrupts - I
think it's because of too slow computer or something. I have used
xvidcap, because it captures and records video and sound in the same
time. I have seen the videos Rahul has mentioned, but it was just
installation and presentation of the system, so the howtos on
particulart topics can be very valuable. I will prepare more videos on
the topics Alex has mentioned in her mail. I will integrate it with the
existing ScreenCasting page and install one of FC6 test versions and
perform it for the new release. I will also strive to speak as clearly
as I am able to :)

So let's start! :)

Pawel
