Hello Dears, Wikimania 2008 sessions are now available here: http://www.bibalex.org/isis/Frontend/archive/Archive_Movie.aspx Videos of 77 sessions are available in MPG format, this is mainly for download; I am afraid no preview is available. Enjoy:) Thanks for your patience, Moushira

Thank you for this amazing work Moushira, please extend our thanks to the whole video team and whoever made this possible. I think this is the first time that Wikimania is available on video so quickly and so thoroughly :-) Best, Delphine

forget that it was your idea, at first place, that we take care of the recording. I don't think we would have given due attention to all sessions without your notice, so thank you..:) Moushira

Agreed. This is a wonderful opportunity for those who are interested but unable to make it to the conference to participate in some manner. I expect as people view the videos, we will see interesting feedback on issues raised at Wikimania.

Hehe, reminds me of seeing people's vacation photos. Sure it's fun, but being there would've been better. "And here's where we met the Buddhist Monks while we were walking along the Great Wall of China....wish you could've been there!" Always, Chad

Wow, I am mega impressed. Go, B.A. :) Now we need some ultra-frank assessments about which sessions were worth seeing, to avoid downloading gigs and gigs of data. :) Anyone feel like putting together a backyard DVD burning service? I would pay a decent amount for someone to burn all/some of these to DVD and mail them to me. 2008/8/7 Brian <Brian.Mingus(a)colorado.edu>du>:

I don't think many people are aware of this, but yes. (I found out in May this year) <ftp://memphis.iis.sinica.edu.tw/wikimania2007_DV_ogg/> See also <http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimania_2007_videocasts> for matching session numbers to titles. cheers Brianna -- They've just been waiting in a mountain for the right moment: http://modernthings.org/

Does anyone know an open source video splitter? Kaltura accepts up to 200 mb per file, so I had to split my video :) (Kaltura you can play online, so it a little more user friendly towards that respect) I used http://www.doeasier.org/splitter/ now. I would welcome good suggestions though. BR, Lodewijk 2008/8/7 Brianna Laugher <brianna.laugher(a)gmail.com>om>:

btw, you can find more easy to watch video's here on the kalturawiki: http://www.kaltura.com/devwiki/index.php/Wikimania_Sessions . Not all sessions are there yet though. If you want, you can download from the ISIS website, split it to files less then 200 mB and upload them on the wiki (in one video). The bolded sessions are available already.
