Really great to see all the documentation up :)

Big thanks to all concerned!

Re: video - surely it is crazy/hypocritical (espcially considering much 
of the events were about openness and sharing etc.) to not give everyone 
access ALL the documentation we have?

I understand not wanting to get high bandwidth bills, but there are 
plenty of services such as http://ourmedia.org and http://commonbits.org 
etc that specialise in hosting such stuff. Why not use them and post the 
relevant download/torrent links?

Also, I couldn't see any licence information. Who owns the copyright of 
these materials? Have they dedicated the documentation to the Public 
Domain? Or released it under a Creative Commons license? Which one?

Thanks,

Josef.

> Just for clarification of Karel's question about the video interviews, and for others reading this, NODE.L isn't putting up the video interviews, only audio interviews and still images - this is due to the consideration that video interviews are perhaps not that interesting to watch in themselves (there's only the audio archive of the stream from the WSFII panel presentations/discussions as well, though I believe there was never a video stream for those in the first place), also to free up server space.  All the video interviews have had their audio stripped and uploaded as audio interviews, along with some still from the video footage.

However, if someone would really love to have a particular video interview, I can put you in touch with one of the members of ELAM and perhaps you could work out how to make that happen with them.
