Dec23 TUG bonus: a holiday extraganza video

[Sam Carter]

Dear Steve,

Thanks for your interest in watching the Christmas Extravaganza! 

The video should be viewable without logging into vimeo. As far as I understand, an account is only necessary for uploading videos, but not for watching public videos. 

Cheers,
samcarter
