The First European Ruby Conference was held at the University of Karlsruhein in Germany, from the 21st to the 22th of June, 2003. It was organized by Armin Roehrl.

Thanks to Armin, the presentations were digitally recorded and have been made available as AVI files. Some of theses are now available for download from ruby-doc.org here. The videos have had the some noise filtering and volume normalization applied, and have been converted to MPEG-1 to reduce (albeit slightly) their size.

Not all of the videos are available right now. Others will go up as time permits me to do the file processing.

I initially had some FTP timeout trouble uploading the files to ruby-doc.org, so I split them into chunks. I decided to leave them this way to help avoid marathon download sessions. To combine the chunks into the complete file you basically just need to 'cat' them in sequence. I've written a Ruby script to do this, available from the video download page.

If anyone thinks they can mirror any of these files it would be a tremendous help.

Slides for the presentations are available here: http://www.approximity.com/euruko03/slides/

Enjoy, and thanks again to Armin Roehrl.
