http://OpenIndie.com was asked to participate in the DIY DAYS incubator on April 3rd 2010 where Kieran & I spent the whole day reviewing the strengths and challenges of introducing OpenIndie to the world.
The tail end of the day was spent preparing and rehearsing this presentation that I then gave to the DIY DAYS participants and the message was very well received.
Afterwards Kieran said, "We arent the OpenIndie that went into the DIY DAYS Incubator." It was a truly transformative experience. One that has catapulted us into dialog with investors and other potential leadership and has boosted the user base of the site.
If you know anyone who should be a part of the OpenIndie effort, please send referrals and suggestions along via twitter or email.

Wonderful message. What nycic misses, is the point. It's not about your film or my film, but about the gatekeepers of distribution and how the playing field is unevenly tilted towards those with capital.

I'm impressed for the simple fact you are still pushing through the red tape and creating a tool for the independent community.
Well done and keep up the good work.
