FWIW here's an excerpt from the LinuxTag 2008 speaker booklet:

    We will record on an experimental basis some talks with a digital
    camera / camcorder and store them for later processing. Some talks
    may also be streamed live. For more details please see our website
    or ask at the Speaker's Office. If you have strong objections
    against being recorded, please contact us.

I don't remember if there was anything about recording in the speaker
registration form.
