[ewg] Web site update

Thu Feb 16 11:07:13 PST 2012

I've updated the Sonoma 2010 section of both videos and presentations.
Videos are listed individually, zipped into daily consolidations, and a very
large single zip for videos of all presentations.

Presentations currently are available as zips of each day and for the entire
workshop. I will work at getting individual presentations listed soon as I
can. I will copy any details from the old site into the individual file
descriptions at that time.

So few days have passed.. and it seems that all documents from past Sonoma
OFA conferences are very much lost e.g here
https://openfabrics.org/ofa-documents/presentations/cat_view/57-ofa-document
s/23-presentations/40-workshops.html
you can see no sign for pre-2010 Sonoma. For OFA 2011 there are docs but I
can't think on less friendly manner to build the page and for 2010 the docs
are empty. What was wrong in the older web site that the OFA member
companies had to pay money and make this site such non usable? why the site
isn't open for everyone? and even after registration / login you can't find
there any docs? how can new comers to the rdma industry catch up without all
the good old materials / presentations from
2005/6/7/8/9/10 . I have bunch of people asking me questions in various
rdma/IB related issues and I can't point them anywhere.
