Isn't everything? And who says we have to do it perfectly right the
first time? Doing audio or text overlay or any editting at all is
going to complicate things sure... but maybe we don't "need" that to
make a positive impact compared to where we are now. Are rough theora
video captures of desktop tasks better than nothing? Are rough video
captures "good enough"?
In the particular case of *video*, I think the answer is "it depends."
Because bad video can, in fact, be worse than no video (cf. "FUDCon1").
Note: I'm not saying that we couldn't or shouldn't try it. Does anyone
within the sound of our voices have the chops for this?
