I've updated this page to reflect the current status:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ArtworkTeam/ExampleContent
Also if you look at the latest installed example pack you'll see various
documents that just need some more love. Specifically:
* Writer documents - These can always be a bit better in terms of
layout and content.
* Impress - These are much better now after some new theme love from
Sakari, but I'm sure it can be tweaked further
* Spreadsheets - these simply need some inspiration and more work.
Something that can make nice plots (trig plots are boring).
* Draw - We really should have something ubuntu related here.
* Video - I nearly have the technology for this sorted out, see:
http://people.ubuntu.com/~henrik/examplecontent/video/ Though I'm still
searching for a basic frame grabber for Linux that can dump the screen
activity to a raw video file (from there fmpeg2theora does a good job).
The videos could also do with some better scripting and need to be
updated when the desktop look has stabalised.
* Screenshots - Many of the items above need up to date screenshots.
For the last two points on that list I'd love to see individuals or
teams take on responsibility for maintaining these as regular projects.
Videos: It would be nice to get this working better generally because
these Ubuntu videos could go on TheOpenCD and on the website. Videos are
also cool for previewing new things like xgl and generally create hype.
Screenshots: I've put up a page to start with here.
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ArtworkTeam/ScreenShots There are many places
where a reliable supply of fresh screenshots would be very useful,
incuding documentation, the website and presentations.
