[Foundation-l] Tragedy: videos and slides from presentations Wikimanias (lately 2011 in Haifa)

[M. Williamson]

A bit disappointed to see posts like this. Most of us don't have the luxury
of attending international conferences every year, but that doesn't mean
we're not interested to know what happened there. Videos should be uploaded
and most popular presentations should be subtitled into the most popular
languages (I recognize that subtitling long videos is a huge time suck for
volunteers- but in an *ideal* world this would happen)
