Sharing videos are so important. This is what I suggest.
At the end of the wikimania, all videos shot (even if up to 15+ Gig) should
be available for any attendee to copy onto their external hard drive or
personal computer to take along to his/her originating country. At their
home countries, they can share those videos directly also with their
wikimedian friends who couldn't make it to the event.
Like myself, I could have gotten the videos easily from Sandister, which
will be less costly, convenient, and faster to get instead of downloading
or watching online.
I don't know of data costs in other parts of the world, but from where I
am, downloading/watching online videos *really *cost. Plus, the down
streaming speed isn't good.
Summary: Make all recorded videos available at the end of the event for
anyone interested to copy (perhaps in an intranet) before person returns to
their countries. Sharing of the videos should be decentralized.

Hi Deryck,
It's great to hear that the parallel sessions were recorded. :-) As a
suggestion: those that are asking for these videos might also be willing to
help edit and upload those videos to Commons. Would you be willing to share
the raw recordings with interested individuals so that they could do so?
Thanks,
Mike
(who is not volunteering edit video recordings here! Although I can
provide some FTP storage for video files if that would be useful.)

All the sessions held in the Jockey Club
Auditorium are still available
on livestream:

The other sessions have been recorded but will take some time to be
uploaded.
(Expect this to take a few months based on past experience - we
only have volunteers!)

Please, can I get a link to watch some of the WMHK videos online? Or
they're not yet out?

I too would love to see the videos. Is there any news on where they're
at?
The people who couldn't attend Wikimania, and
the people who were
attending other sessions in the same timeslot, would all benefit so very
much!
The schedule page could be an awesome Table of Contents, but currently
it leads to a lot of "teasers"...

Also Slides -
Much thanks to those of you who've added your slides! If you haven't
yet, please do so.
If they're uploaded elsewhere, please also add them to commons (for
future preservation, in case prezi etc disappear), and group them in
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Wikimania_2013_presentation_sli…
Thanks!
