Hi

Can any one advise when we can expect the conference talks (and 
perhaps the slides as well) to available to download or via Utube 
  ?

I saw some of the streamed talks, but would love to view the rest.

cheers

The MC said initially that they'd have them up in a day or two most likely, then Andrei said he wanted to stagger their release over a couple weeks like he did last time, apparently to stay on top of reddit for awhile. I'm sure they'll post something in the announcements forum eventually.

The schedule of making recordings available will be similar to that of DConf 2013. -- Andrei

A benefit of releasing the presentations slowly is to enable constant exposure to DConf in the coming weeks, as opposed to making all of them available and potentially watch interest die in a few days. Ali

I think they should be uploaded all ASAP and then you can do "official" announcements in reddit or wherever you thinks it's best to promote the language. But really, introducing artificial waiting time for people ALREADY interested and using the language in the name of marketing is really annoying! -- Leandro Lucarella (AKA luca) http://llucax.com.ar/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Fantasy is as important as wisdom

Aye, we could also, if we want some "new" thing to post to reddit each time, also write accompanying articles or something so even people who watch them all early will still have a reason to click and get involved instead of just leaking the links themselves.

I agree 100%. Educating people currently interested is as important as marketing.

I actually prefer the slow release of the videos - it gives me enough time to digest each talk and discuss it before the next one grabs mine and everyone else's attention. I think releasing one video every few days leads to much more in-depth discussion on the forum as well.

Agree. I find it nice to have each video gaining some time in the spotlight and the discussions that follow. Even though I'm so exited I actually want all the videos at once!

Nodoby is stopping you from doing that with what I proposed. All you have to do is still do the one-every-few-days "official" releases, with a nice announcement. It could be called "featured talk of today" or whatever. Just because some people need some time digest talks it makes NO SENSE to have all the rest of the people that doesn't have that problem FORCED to wait.

Huh? I either disagree, or I don't understand your point. A release implies an announcement of some sort somewhere, otherwise it's not really a release... -- Bruno Medeiros https://twitter.com/brunodomedeiros

By releasing video I mean simply making it available to those who are interested. By announcing - actually posting links to forum / reddit / whatever and encouraging discussion. By keeping that stuff separate you can both make happy those who await for videos and create marketing events Andrei wants.

Until someone stumbles across the video and posts it to Reddit before Andrei intends to.

Oh, I don't necessarily mean someone who follows the newsgroup. My point is that any random Joe looking for D stuff, and who has no clue about the release schedule, can stumble across it and share it. It's the downside of separating the release and the announcement of the release -- loss of control.
