Any interest in video recording? The SLUUG (St. Louis Unix UG) is considering having access to a group of recorders so we can post videos of our meetings online. Besides a volunteered recorder, I have suggested getting a couple of the new inexpensive recorders to preserve our meetings for posterity.<div>
