Slightly OT: hm, does D have own YouTube community channel? I'd subscribe to one ;)

I don't think so. The closest is Andrei Alexandrescus account posting videos from the previous conference. Found this one too: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL4EvMyUrlAJmEfs8l6oW2BlnALiDu7kGy

I'm working towards a channel specifically [0]. It will house two types of series of videos. Firstly Lets learn, basically learning D. Secondly Lets make, as you can guess its about applying D in some format. I'll mention that the Lets learn type will be pretty much limited to one file and executable on dpaste. However its slow going as I'm learning blender to act as a very fancy video editor. If anybody is interested in contributing to this, I'll be happy to add you as a manager.

Sounds good, but I think a common channel for everything D would be a better move. A "dlang" channel that includes every talk, tutorial etc. I don't know much of how YouTube works, so I don't know if such an aggregated channel is possible. If it is, someone should create it and gather all YouTube videos.

I want to keep separate the easy stuff compared to the more complex things. ApplyYourDLang is dedicated to basically easy related content. And getting people started. Where as an official channel could be more advance topics and talks.

There is no reason why official channel ust be focused on advanced and complicated stuff. Quite the contrary. I'd expect it to aggregate all stuff of sold quality - and nothing prevents video from being both in your dedicated channel and referenced from official one at the same time. Think about it as moderated hash tag.

I really would rather newbies to not be able to find them selves all of a sudden in a video regarding e.g. manual memory management. That could be rather scary for them. Thats why I'm suggesting to keep the learn based content in another channel. Once somebody has gone through learning some basics (they may not even know any programming at all!) than just finding videos on more advanced topics won't be as scary. Hence this is a very special use case that I'm considering.

I am pretty sure no one will object such initiative if there is a 
person willing to maintain it.

You can have multiple managers per channel (can e.g. upload). Because I want to keep the learning material in ApplyYourDLang perhaps because you can add featured channels, that we could create a small set of them. With a different set of target audiences each.

Thanks! But could you use bigger fonts and more contrast color scheme for better view in next videos?

I'll increase the font size, but I think < 30 lines on the screen would be too big (it's almost there in that video). The contrast is another issue.. I have tweaked urxvt, tmux and vim in order to get these colors. Trying to change just the colorscheme in vim doesn't give the expected results I'm afraid.

You could always just alter the contrast/color-balance in the video.

I've never done any video editing, so I have no idea how. I tried pressing around on the YouTube enhance video settings, but it looks like an LSD trip no matter what I do.

But is the contrast really that bad? I find my settings easy on the eyes. Clown colors makes me dizzy.

It's fine in my opinion, but it's a matter of taste.

I'll leave it as-is. If more people complain, I'll google around and try to fix them.
