Bug Description

Binary package hint: example-content

Much of the files and content in the examples folder are out of date.

One thing in particular i'd like to note is that the video is very low quality but theora has improved a lot since the video was first encoded. It should be re-encoded for the intrepid release

Addition: see discussion about video quality at https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-discuss/2008-August/005074.html

Is the Ubuntu Free Culture Showcase part of the example-content package or separate? When/where will submissions open up for Jaunty Jackalope?
