Dan, Yes, I am hoping that all of the talks are recorded on video. I will be working with the conference center this week to see what we can actually accomplish. My hope is to just use their A/V team to handle the setup and recording. We'll take the videos and publish them somehow/somewhere. I hope to know more about this soon (what we can expect for video files, formats, etc.). Thanks for the pointer, though! I'll keep it in mind.
