I'll endeavor to attend though I'll be in a physical conference most of the day. Personally I would mostly be interested in a transcript to be published, at least to the mirrors, of the discussion either way.
+1 to this!
I guess in my mind, the question becomes -- What is wrong with people wanting such, installing screen on a reliable box in fine bandwidth, and using an irssi, and having a local transcript?
I wrote scripts that did the automatic log capture, rotation, and coloration early on, and itseemed to me that all it did was provide 'fodder' for google to remember with ephemeral content that some speakers might not want to see years later in a web search. When CentOS was spunout of cAos into a standalone project on new inrastructure, I certainly did not fee that the effort was worth migrating, as I rarely used it
Part of why IRC works in my opinion is that it is casual and unguarded
I understand that this is a meeting but a better reaction might be a person feeling the need to take a local log, and if one felt motivated, produce 'minutes' of the event in the wiki -- that way, the 'burden' of the production is borne by the person 'feeling the itch'
