Folks,
seems like something broke in the FOSS4G 2008 setup, the links don't
direct to a working copy of the conference:
http://foss4g.org/
goes to:
http://conference.osgeo.org/index.php/foss4g/2008
http://2008.foss4g.org/
goes to:
http://conference.osgeo.org/index.php/foss4g/foss4g2008
Both don't work.
Best regards,
Arnulf

Arnulf,
I looked into this briefly. The 2008 web site was managed using OCS.
OCS is currently living on the webextra VM. I'm not who migrated it
there from osgeo1, but to the best I can understand it is not working
properly and I don't know why.
I gather the data for the conference live in mysql.
...
OK, after some more fiddling I found that one of the .php files in
/osgeo/ocs2/ocs-2.1.1-2/cache appeared to be truncated. Under the
assumption items in a directory called cache were recreateable I
erased all the .php files in this directory. Magically everything worked
after that.
I'm not sure how things got into this state, but it is working now.
It is my personal opinion that depending on a running instance of
OCS for the 2008 site is very fragile and it would be nice if we could
somehow extract a static web site for that conference with all the
valuable materials.
However, that isn't something I really want to take on.
Best regards,

That could be done with "httrack" which, to my knowledge, works fairly
well.

Gavin,
I have created a ticket for this issue.
http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/866
I’ll try and take a look tonight but my OCS foo is weak. If it isn’t
relatively obvious I may need help. I can provide access to the VM
if you are interested in looking around.
Best regards,
Frank

Thanks to whoever brought the foss4g2008 site back up. It looks like it’s running on OCS or is it an httrack copy?
Most of it seems to be there except for the downloadable content. I clicked through to some presentations and none that I tried download: e.g http://conference.osgeo.org/index.php/foss4g/2008/paper/view/344/150 . i think it’s pretty valuable to have all the presentations archived there, so what can be done to retrieve them?
