Anyway, I've got them all downloaded and on an easy to swallow DVD with a web-page front end. It's not pretty but it works. I'm not sure why Vmware couldn't do it. It took me a few hours. For the cost of Vmworld, they could have thrown in a $1.00 DVD. I would have given up a hat, or those pins they were giving out in favor of a DVD.</p></div><!-- [DocumentBodyEnd:35ba1f70-d913-471a-b2fb-57a0f66d3c01] -->2008-10-10T00:55:27Z4 years, 7 months ago6Re: Sessions made public

<!-- [DocumentBodyStart:91f060ba-25f8-49ff-9976-19ad431954a3] --><div class='jive-rendered-content'><p>It would be nice,I had thought about putting them together and selling them last year but they changed their policies and didn't freely release the sessions to the public right after the show like previous years. They seem to be protective of the content especially since most of it is used again for VMworld Europe and doing the DVD thing would make it easier for people to spread the content around to non-attendees. Last year I downloaded all the mp3, pdf and swf files, it took quite a while though. This year I might try to script the download or use an add-in like DownloadThemAll for Firefox instead.</p></div><!-- [DocumentBodyEnd:91f060ba-25f8-49ff-9976-19ad431954a3] -->2008-10-09T15:15:14Z4 years, 7 months ago8Re: Sessions made public

It would keep their servers from being bombarded with people trying to download, and make most of the folks a bit happier just having EVERYTHING on one DVD to get at, rather than playing hunt and peck to find everything online.</p></div><!-- [DocumentBodyEnd:6044dad1-5220-4130-bb59-dd23f87011cd] -->2008-10-09T13:52:22Z4 years, 7 months ago9
