Copying and pasting text is an issue, though, as is the editing. I imagine most screencasts are conceived and produced as one-off, zero-maintenance projects. > The only possible benefit I could is for complex tasks that new users > might attempt. Since that is, in fact, the target subject matter and audience for the screencasts, I think if someone wants to go to the trouble of contributing it, we should encourage it. I would caution any screencast authors to keep the screencasts modular and short, so that if we need to "fix" (that is, "redo") anything, it doesn't involve a long, drawn-out process of recreation. -- Paul W.
