FreeCAD on Video

Note: this page is still just a proposal in the sandbox. For some other info see the discussion tab, or add to it.

There are a lot of Videos about FreeCad, to many to list here. Even the number of "channels" is high. Here is the beginning of an index of some of them.

 * Include FreeCad information from the About box, including especially the version of FreeCad
 * I've seen a number of tutorial videos for other software packages where the tutor/demonstrator has a webcam image of themselves on the screen during the tutorial/demo. A lot of the time it just shows them looking at the screen and talking, but at other times they are looking straight into the webcam when they are trying to introduce a new topic, explain something, or just adding commentary. Do you think that this sort of thing would be useful or appropriate in a FreeCAD tutorial?
 * Videos should never auto-start.
 * After starting there should be a way to quit/pause.
 * I would suggest calling out all hotkeys used, at least the first few times if they are used multiple times. (key-mon [1] or other tool showing keys/mouse buttons pressed are really handy for that.)
 * Briefly describe expected level of FreeCAD understanding at the beginning. If for example tutorial is for FEM user should know how to model the solid to be analyzed.
 * Clarity of voice and directions of Cursor that is being clicked or any other combo of keys eg. +ctrl or using shift with FreeCAD buttons.
 * it is best to use the default toolbars. If for some reason this is not the case, then it should at least be stated very clearly to avoid confusion.
 * Link to "source code" for the model
