Cal's removal of online lectures for the Public

[goossbears <acohen36@gmail.com>]

I mentioned this in passing at the last BerkeleyLUG meetup.

The University of California, Berkeley is planning to remove their public lecture recordings ("course captures", audio and video) and put them behind authentication. The planned date for the change is 2017-03-15.

The removal will affect at least these public channels:

• https://www.youtube.com/user/UCBerkeley
• https://itunes.apple.com/institution/uc-berkeley/id354813951 (gone as of 2017-03-16)
• http://webcast.berkeley.edu/series (index of links to YouTube and iTunes) (as of 2017-03-16, directs you to coursecapture.berkeley.edu which is behind CalNet login)

The removal is apparently already a fait accompli, but good for people all to know about in case of positive future developments.
