Oh, thank you guys! I didn't expect so quick response from such an
excellency!<br>
<br>
Cris, <br>
<br>
I hope that you don't expect I. Assimov or A. C. Clark writing style
in my WikiActionBook! :)<br>
Hmm, but maybe will be this conversation even more interesting than
those semi-static text over there!<br>
<br>
I can see that you are very interested in global education, heh and I
guess also smart enough that you can see in Blender excellent tool and
community for this task, well, me too (pstt, we are not alone! :).<br>
<br>
Bright future of Blender! Yes, that's a nice topic! That's why I also
started ~one year ago AIML bot with a Blender 'AI' Documentation idea.
Still waiting on Official English FAQ to be completed (we must admit
that this isn't easy task for so fast expanding software)...<br>
<br>
Anyway, I like this AI Documentation Bot idea and some conversations
with users was very amusing indeed, especially because poor new users
usually expect help from the bot and not questions! :) (sorry guys, but
your conversations really help me for improving it, I really hope that
will be soon useful & thanks for all answers, many are Great, even
if I don't understand all of your languages! :).<br>
<br>
Cris, you know, I didn't care much about such (too simple) AI, my first
bot 'Greta' was just a toy at the beginning, but when I start to follow
conversation logs where was one boy interested almost a year for one
girl - real person, but who exist for him only in bot's brain (from her
previous conversations with it), well from then I'm not so sure that is
'too simple'! Hmm, is human brain so simple or is AIML more complex
than it looks?!<br>
<br>
Here is the link (if you didn't see it yet, there was many users with a
name Cris!)<br>

Hey Willem, <br>
<br>
you have really great artists group on your site! Such group could be
good for a visual quality check on BlenderWiki! I believe that can such
group raise visual quality for all future entries!<br>
<br>
But something I don't understand, is this group physically together or
is also on-line, like this marvelous team?<br>

Hi Igor.
Your mail post were very interesting.
I'm Willem from the 3D Animation Network.
I hear what you say about being together. And it really helps. That is why
I've started the 3D Animation Network. And Yes I also believe that there is
not many people that know's blenter inside out. The idea of the 3DAN is to
group Blender fanatics together in a inviroment where we can all learn
togethet, faster. It will be great if you can give us advice on how to
approce this quest. We're also soon going to start to film Blender training
material that will be avalible on our website soon. We know that we still
have a way to go but are willing to walk the walk. It will be great if you
can give us advice on the looks and feel on our website.
<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.3danimationnetwork.com">www.3danimationnetwork.com</a>
What is the posibelity of starting a group for the 3DAN there. Together we
stronger. If we can train the people and let the industry know the is more
arrowned than 3DS Max and othe expensive software, like Blender. If we can
start working groups arrowned the world and make proper training material
eg. Video's, Books, Teotorials - we will win the battle and create a lot of
oppertunaties for a lot of our users.
Tell me what you think about this.
