Speaking of which, for FOSDEM in the X devroom... Last I heard from Luc that he just plans on finding a microphone and attaching it to a laptop for the recording. I am waiting on hearing back from him, but I may bring some equipment for video recording of the speeches -- at least for the Radeon and Gallium3D and Intel talks.
