publish videos from past OCaml Users Meetings #68

Sylvain Le Gall has videos from OCaml Users Meetings through 2011. He has posted some from 2008 and 2010 on YouTube. Just adding these links to the videos page would be boring. Let's consider how to integrate them better. Currently oud.ocaml.org points to external pages for the 2011 and 2010 meetings, but maybe we should create an archive of past meetings properly integrated into ocaml.org.

There are several ocaml related cufp videos too...good idea.

What have you got in mind ? Archive them by year ? Do you want to link/embed them or host them ?

We could have a "meetings" sub-directory, and then the following under that:

OCaml2010/index.html - containing content of http://rwmj.wordpress.com/2010/01/14/ocaml-users-meeting-paris-april-2010/

OCaml2011/index.html - containing content of https://forge.ocamlcore.org/plugins/mediawiki/wiki/ocaml-meeting/index.php/OCamlMeeting2011

OCaml2012/index.html - containing content of http://oud.ocaml.org/2012/

For slides, we can put them directly on the web server (when it gets hosted at OCaml Labs, right now we don't have a place for static media).

For video, I think the best solution would be to use a YouTube account that is for official ocaml.org use only. All videos could be nicely organized there and we can put links within the above pages.

The OCaml meeting videos are all already on YouTube (I linked them from the http://oud.ocaml.org/2012 program page). Best just link to those instead of mirroring them, so stats aren't split.

Why not store slides here btw? It should be ok to check in content to this repo --- github.com/ocaml is a paid account.

Okay, maybe we should leave past videos where they are. For future, it might be good to put them under a semi-official account, so we'll have everything in one place.

If there were just a few files, I suppose it wouldn't matter. Long term, we'll have lots of files. I haven't yet asked Inria, but maybe we'll also want to move the compiler tarballs to the ocaml.org server since the goal really is to deprecate the caml.inria.fr URL.

The ACM takes care of the OUD videos, so they'll likely remain on someone else's account. I'll ask before next year's though, as I think Malcolm is the video chair again.

Even putting a lot of content in the Git repo sounds ok: it would be worth separating out the large static content into a separate submodule though, so we can clone the HTML bits easily.

Good idea. I'll look into configuring it this way.
