Videos from the LibrePlanet 2017 keynotes and sessions are becoming available at media.libreplanet.org; many are already posted and others will be filled in over the next few days. "LibrePlanet 2017 closed Sunday, March 26th with a keynote by Sumana Harihareswara, bringing to an end two days of presentations, workshops, hacking, conversations, and fun. More than 400 people interested in free software joined the Free Software Foundation (FSF) and MIT's Student Information Processing Board (SIPB) in Cambridge, MA for the 9th annual LibrePlanet." LWN was there for the conference, so you can expect more coverage coming soon (our first article on Conor Schaefer's SecureDrop talk appeared in the March 30 weekly edition).

Dear LWN,

[LibrePlanet 2017][0] closed Sunday, March 26th with a keynote by
Sumana Harihareswara, bringing to an end two days of
presentations, workshops, hacking, conversations, and fun. More
than 400 people interested in free software joined the Free
Software Foundation (FSF) and MIT's Student Information Processing
Board (SIPB) in Cambridge, MA for the 9th annual LibrePlanet.

There is so much to share about this edition of LibrePlanet. We
wrote a few things about [the first day][1] of the conference,
which included a keynote by Kade Crockford of the American Civil
Liberties Union of Massachusetts and Richard M. Stallman
presenting the [2016 Free Software Awards][2]. [Day two][3] brought two
more keynotes, by Cory Doctorow and Sumana Harihareswara, as well
as LibrePlanet's first birds of a feather sessions.

The conference included over fifty sessions, many of which were
recorded and are being posted on [media.libreplanet.org][4], an
instance of GNU MediaGoblin the FSF uses to host videos and
photos. You can already [watch videos from the conference][5],
and more will be added over the next few days.

Over the course of the weekend, we microblogged from our
[GNU social][6] and [Twitter][7] accounts. Conference attendees
and people who watched the livestream and participated remotely
over IRC kept up an active conversation, which you can check out
with the #LibrePlanet tag on [GNU social][8] and [Twitter][9]. 

We hope to see you at LibrePlanet 2018!

So I start playing one of the videos, then switch to another tab in my browser [*]. Does the video continue playing? No, it stops, and loads the next video in the series. WTF??! Why does "GNU MediaGoblin" (never heard of it, but apparently it's the thing for hosting this) hate me that much?

[*] Like everybody else, I suck at multitasking, but still imagine it makes me oh-so-much more productive.
