[Nate Aune]

In case you aren't following the updates on planet.plone.org, I just
posted a blog entry describing what makes Plone4ArtistsVideo unique as
a video publishing tool for Plone.

I'd also like to announce the 2008 Plone4Artists pledge drive, and
give you the opportunity to contribute financially to help fund the
development of Plone4ArtistsVideo 1.1. Among other fixes and
enhancements, this release will bring Plone 3.0 compatibility.

PLEASE pledge your support to help us get version 1.1 released and
compatible with Plone3!
