Project idea

[edit]

What is the problem you're trying to solve?

[edit]

I took about many videos during the Wikimania 2014 Conference in London (amounted to about 12 Gig of video data, including about 10 separate interviews in about 8 different languages from all continents)

These raw video footage are currently stack on my PC. I wish to share these raw videos for any interested to use.

What is your solution?

[edit]

Upload all the videos into a video sharing platform online (say YouTube), group all the individual interviews and or session videos into playlists, thus making downloading and or reviewing easier.

Currently, edited videos of the Wikimania 2014 Conference can be found at:
