Re: [libreoffice-marketing] Making use cases videos

Hello Pablo,

It sounds exciting. At the moment let's keep the two lists posted .For the features I think we can 
simply take tge ones listed in the future release notes of the upcoming 4.1. For the voice if no 
one else volunteers I will be happy to do it.

Keep in mind that people will want to add their own languages as a voice over, so we'll have to 
keep the Native Language teams in the loop.

Thanks!

Charles.
