Onyeibo, maybe Fudcon NA or LATAM :P<div><br><div><br></div><div>I was refering with ffmpeg and mencoder more to videos, not to Blender. We also need to deal with camcord formats and so far, there aren&#39;t too many cameras with free formats. </div>
<div><br></div><div>Even if we know that some formats are incorrect; the only way to make someone understand that there are options is showing them. Now, if we plan to talk about design where people already know about design (with private tools) then we need to show them that if their teachers ask them a PSD file, Gimp can provide it... or if they need to deliver their homework as AI. Inkscape can do it.</div>
<div><br></div><div>When we talk about formats we cannot apply the &quot;don&#39;t&quot; rule. See kids example, if you forbid a kid to do something, is the first thing he will do; if you explain him why he shouldn&#39;t and show him/her some examples and tell him/her &quot;hey, danger is here, but you can choose not to use it&quot; would be better.</div>
<div><br></div><div>This is my personal apreciation, obviously; I come from a Continent where patents and formats hasn&#39;t restrictions but maybe a different aproach, more friendly and less bossy :)</div><div><br></div>
