Thanks for answering, Kishon.  Sorry to not get back to you sooner, Matthias.
I can confirm what Angela said.  The videos are unfortunately not available.

The LF tried to go back to the original videographer, and see if they had backups,
but they did not.  The videos that were made by Bootlin (formerly Free Electrons),
(not that particular year), do have backups, and can be accessed on their web site.

Unfortunately, unless someone scraped the video from YouTube, the video
is likely lost forever.  :-(

I'd like to start a project to scrape the ELC videos from YouTube (for other years)
that were done by videographers, and for which no known backups exist.  This is to
prevent something like this from happening in the future for other videos.  If anyone
would like to help with this project, please let me know.
