Uploading a self-edited version of an anime?
Path:
A4E do translation? I was under the impression that they just ripped them from the R1 releases.
Edit: Beaten to the punch ;)
Essedus:
How about a system in witch people can upload their own subs in an archive, and specify for what version they are?
Numenor:
These all sound like good points. I hadn't realised a4e's subs were just DVD subs, but a system like Essedus suggests whereby I could upload just the new subs would be a good idea.
There are a few things about my edited version which could be considered improvements:
1) MKV instead of OGM
2) two subtitle tracks, ASS default
3) Moved OP/ED lyrics to the top to avoid covering the hard-coded kanji lyrics at the bottom
4) Japanese audio set to default
But apart from the video being a4e's (and it being on the DNU list!!) there is one major potential stumbling block in my mind to it getting approved. And that's the fact that nobody but me has ever seen my version, so how could they know whether it is suitable for approval.

Even though I myself prefer Japanese audio set to default, I'm not sure if it could be considered an 'improvement', since it all depends on whether the watcher prefers the English dub or the Japanese one.
And if there comes a time that this anime is allowed to be uploaded, then I suppose you could show comparisons and tell us why it is better.

Not because Japanese is better (though it is), but because it is the original language I feel Japanese should be default as should English subtitles and not Turkish, Danish or Swedish. Of course, it's up to the encoder/uploader himself. But even if you're a die hard dub fan, you might want to think about the majority of the anime watchers who're going to watch what you're dvdripping/fansubbing. It's stupid to make Naruto play the English track when there's so much hate around the dub, for instance. Dragonball Z would be all right since almost everyone watches/prefers the dub.
Man, it was tiring to do that everytime when I saw a new Slam Dunk episode. And also with Anime-MX's Hajime No Ippo.
