John Head has set up an area in Ben Poole’s Lotusphere 2006 wiki in order to store/point to updated slide and sample files from the different sessions. So especially for the Best Practices track, this is the place to download.

IBM at last offers the presentations of Lotusphere 2006 as ZIP-files per Track at Lotusphere Online (for registered attendees only).

And I can offer you a litte wget-hack to download the indvidual presentation-PDFs automatically from Lotusphere Online.

First, you will need wget. If you are using Linux, the chances are highg, that you have this handy little utility allready installed. Windows-Suers find the current version at Heiko Herold’s windows wget spot. All others can find their wget-version at the official GNU Wget homepage.

Next, go to Lotusphere Online and log in with your Username and Password. Once you have done that, take a look at the cookies stored in the browser. There should be a session cookie for „online2006.net”.

Copy the LPTA-value into the clipboard.

Now start a commandline prompt and enter
D:\temp\lsp>wget -r -c --header "Cookie: LtpaToken=__ENTER_VALUE_OF_LPTA_COOKIE_(SEE_ABOVE)" http://mailapp1.online2006.net/confapps/agenda.nsf/WebviewByTitle?OpenView

Once you run the little script, it will create a directory scructure and will download all session-descriptions along with all PDFs. If you just want the PDFs, you can play around with the wget options.
