i will ask about the free culture lisence, can you give me a link to a specific example? I assume it only refers to the footage filmed at sudo.
as for feeling bad about it, he will be paying money which sudoroom will get, and i will also ask for a pallet of lenovo laptops (they don't have to be brand new or in the box) and whatever other bribes. besides feeling bad are you objecting in a way that i need to say no? or standing aside?
considering he'll be using "3 to 8 seconds" of footage and giving us around $400 i think it's a good deal.
