1. It's a big bummer that nothing has happened with chopping
up the videos over the weekend. Right now DConf is three
6-hour blobs of unstructured footage. John has warned us he
might not have broadband access to do so during his travels.
In retrospect, what we should have done was to immediately
arrange that John gives access to the videos to someone
willing and able to do the postprocessing.
Are the streamed videos the only videos available? What about
the original plan to record the talks, were those canceled
because someone started streaming with a laptop?
The talks were recorded and will be at higher quality than the
live stream, but I don't know when they'll be done. Given that
postprocessing is being done to them to insert the slides into
them and whatnot, it'll take them longer than simply giving us
the videos.
I would have thought that we'd just wait for those rather than
trying to chop up the live stream and present that to folks, but
I guess that Andrei wants to make the talks available as quickly
as possible.
