Hi,
Perhaps we just need to start planning a video advert, appealing to the people 
who have signed up to start gathering ideas. This could be done as a wiki 
pages, with sections for video, animation, music etc. It would also be good if 
emails were sent out inviting people to join in on the irc chat for discussion 
and planning. Maybe if we have a good plan by which to start advertising we 
will be able to encourage more people to participate.

Thanks,
Joshua
