Hmm, that's what ORA did at the last Perl conference, although not with
mod_perl talks... They have prepared the audio/video recording of the most
popular sessions and made them available to the public. Not for free of
course.
You probably could have done the same at the ApacheCon, but it's over
already. Your next chance is the summer's OpenSource conference in
Monterey and the autumn's next ApacheCon in London.
