This was pretty nice!  Some critical points:

* I think pointing out "Solar" when you use a sun for the backdrop is
probably unnecessary -- it's actually cooler to let the sun speak for
itself as our theme.

* The music is licensed as CC BY-NC-SA, which isn't appropriate for
Fedora.  Remixers need to be free to use the material commercially if
they want.  (Besides, I'd look for something where the performance
doesn't have so many wrong notes and "clams.")

On the whole I think this is a neat idea -- why not have a nice little
film if we have stock graphics to support it?  If you have the various
source files, you'll want to post them (or links to them).  Is Kino in
our repository?
