sorry for the missquote, I was meaning exactly
the same :-)

Thanks to everyone who has already participated
in this small
"brainstorming" with me. :-)
Just a quick clarification, I was talking about recording *only* the
project showcase, not the whole session. I believe it's good and important
to have an informal part, where peolpe are free to ask, share etc off
record, without worrying about being recording, for exactly the reasons
Sara mentioned.
Cheers,
Shani..
