For the liveCD, I'd like to use Theora, but probably flash or even
still/simple screenshots makes sense for the web.

Note that I won't be doing anything that covers even 50% of this,
particularly given that scripts need to be written and sample material
generated for every demo, since they have to be translated and redone
for other languages. So anything I do would start off very, very
simple- menus, file management, maybe totem and the web.
