  1. Isn’t it rpm2git?

  2. I may be wrong, but the screencast leads me to think there’s nothing so special about rpm2git. I mean, it’s just about saying ‘everyone should be using git’.

    The screencast is all about git, almost nothing about rpm2git. Now, I’m not saying rpm2git isn’t a useful tool; I’m just saying that what makes the process described possible/cool is everyone using git.

  4. @Free Software Can’t Play Ogg

    The Skeleton data is a format for embedding metadata in Ogg streams. I’ve seen this happen with other Oggs produced with recordmydesktop – Skeleton support seems to have been added recently.

  5. I have a related issue to what the previous commenter is experiencing.

    When I click on your link to play the screencast, totem (gstreamer) is opened, and I get the “proprietary format” warning from codeina o_O

    Then, when I validate, I can watch the screencast.

    Is everything in ogg theora/vorbis ? If yes, it is definitely a bug to be reported :-/

  6. I’m thinking a gstreamer bug of some sort. If I hit cancel on codina it actually plays (I forget if I had to hit play again).

    Bug is already filed here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=458404
