Thanks!

Happy to share my sources =85 they're stored on a PC at work.

I think the original is actually already in HD (or somewhere in-between NTS=
C and 1080p -- for example, I might have done it as 1024x768 for some reaso=
n=85 maybe because the Render was taking too long).

Either way, what you're seeing on YouTube is already down-sampled several t=
imes (I down-sampled once from the original source to DVD R5 and that was f=
urther down-sampled for effects and YouTube).

The original video is also over an hour long (so imagine lots of Gibibytes).

With respect to getting an up-to-date version, what's going to be of value =
are my gource scripts that configure the rendering environment. A lot of tr=
ial-and-error went into figuring out what works and what doesn't work (espe=
cially when you start reaching 100,000 nodes and 50,000 edges; configuring =
the physics of the render was an art in patience as well as persistence).

Aside from that, gource takes input from CVS (using a Perl script I tuned f=
or the job), SVN (natively), and Git.

So that's good news for getting an updated render -- we just apply the conf=
igs for that video but swap out the CVS log file for an updated SVN log fil=
e.

Then of course=85 we either throw massive hardware or lots of time at the r=
endering process. (note: a $1200 rig with a fancy graphics card took over a=
 month to render the original video and reaches speeds as SLOW as 0.03 fram=
es-per-second in the rendering process).
