My $0.02:

I would not be supportive of the grant as currently framed, primarily
because there is a greater opportunity for LA to support the recording
of other Melbourne-based user groups' talks.

A more appropriate request, in my opinion, would be for LA to have
recording/media gear available for use by relevant Melbourne-based
groups, and to make this available to the WordPress group as they need
it.

Such an approach would make the recording equipment available to other
affiliated Melbourne user groups, such as LUV, if they wanted it.

I would support the WordPress group managing the loan of this
equipment on behalf of LA; alternatively it could be managed by a
Melbourne-based member of the (proposed?) LA AV committee.
