This is part of why establishing an ongoing subcommittee is sensible; ensuring that knowledge is properly passed down year to year, continual improvement is made on the technology and processes, and skills and experience have a proper flow-on effect to LUG's and other related organisations - end result being more high quality FOSS related content available on the web.

Re streaming[1]; LCA is ran primarily to benefit the FOSS community, right?   Why do we wish to exclude those who can't physically make it?

I have seen real time streaming + social media have very real and positive effects at other conferences; those same conferences, like LCA, don't seem to have attendance issues.  Streaming will never reproduce the hallway track.

[1] Providing downloadable video post-event is a given and I hope we're not debating over that!
