Re: [diykeyboard] A Little Ragtime & Classical on a Janko - Wikipedia entries

[Ken Rushton]

Hi Paul,
I've added a link to your demo under the "External Links" section of
both Isomorphic Keyboards and Janko Keyboards in wikipedia. Check them
out and let me know what to improve.

I again _strongly_ urge you to get the cleanest video rip you can of
your VHS tape, and post it to the Wikipedia commons (the current one
has a few minor glitches). It will greatly help in promoting your
keyboard.

Ken.

PS. I'll also be mentioning it on my AltKeyboards.com site and blog.
Perhaps we can get some other sites to mention it as well.

Thanks Ken. They look fine to me.

Thanks for the enthusiasm, Ken, but I'm pretty busy these days. I'd
have to track down another VHS player, and I'm not sure the quality
would be any better. Seems to me the quality is good enough to get the
point across.

I'm happy to do that, but I don't know how. Would you like me to post
the file on yousendit.com so you can download it?

Thank you sir.

Sure, post it to yousendit or dropbox  and send me explicit permission to add it to Wikipedia on your behalf.
I will cut and paste the permission into the up load somewhere - that's what I recall I did last time anyway.

I suggest keeping it simple and making it public domain.

Hi Ken-

DropBox should have sent you a message by now with a link to the video.

I, the copyright holder of Janko_Demo_1986.wmv, release this work into the public domain.  I grant Ken Rushton the right to post Janko_Demo_1986.wmv anywhere he wishes.

Paul Vandervoort

Let me know if you need anything more.

Thank for taking care of this, Ken.

Cheers,
Paul V.

Hi, I got time to try uploading it - you vastly impressed my wife BTW, which is an impressive compliment. She went "oh wow! when you played the double-handed overlay.
Anyway, I had to convert it from WMV format to OGV - and am now uploading it. Keep your fingers crossed.

Ken.
