[Jprogramming] Wiki update video and revised promo video

Not butting in at all Viktor,

It does more than code search, but I think that that is a good differentiator for it. I'll wait a bit before changing anything to see if there are other suggestions.

Cheers, bob

Those sort of videos are usually done with a 30 to 1 ratio of footage to raw footage to finished length, but if it is a topic that would not be dated then that could certainly be worth doing. Let me know if you have preferred topic to begin with.
