As you will see there are still a lot of things to be done in order to complete it.
Anyway I hope you like the movie and maybe you can contribute to the
post-production to improve it.
This is what's still to be done.

German Pirate Party supports Source Release
posted: 2008-10-11
Today I met Stefan Hermes from the
German Pirate Party
at the
Freiheit statt Angst
(Freedom not Fear) demo in Berlin. The demonstration was directed mainly
against the increasing collection of our personal data by the government and big companies.
It is feared that the control over the data along with the increasing abilities of interconnecting them enables
the exact monitoring of our private life. A fact to be concerned about.
Stefan and the Pirates offered their help for publishing the Valkaama source files via BitTorrent
and seeding it. That's great news... and apart from that I think that there's also a good chance that
we'll create the biggest Torrent in the network :)
