They deceived us! They said videos of presentations and talks, etc. will be released, but they never did. And they don't even respond to our questions about them here. We don't want the "edited" and directed versions! Just release the thing as it was and it will be fine. But maybe you have deceived us! x-( :-) Maysara _______________________________________________ Wikimania-l mailing list Wikimania-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimania-l

Little known fact: I am one of the moderators of wikimania-l -- a moderation bit which I almost never have occasion to use (except for deleting spam). But I've put Maysara on moderation just now for civility. It's reasonable to ask what happened to the videos, but not to laugh at someone who tries to give a good answer. Obviously, anything constructive is welcome to go through. Hope this helps!
