:o) Thanks Keegan.
This may be far too much to ask - I don't know anything about costs and technicalities - but will it be possible in the near future to set up a camera and some microphones at every session in these kinds of conferences for people whose health, finances or other commitments prevent them from attending in person?

I've been following the conference online and I congratulate the
organisers
- some fascinating presentations and the videos are excellent. A link to
the videos:

I recommend Stuart Ray's insightful presentation at 4 hours 36 minutes on day two (Saturday 10th), addressing Wikipedia's problematical
relationship
with experts.
Indeed!
A couple of points.
- I'd love to view or listen to a recording of the 45 minute
panel discussion held in the Jefferson Room at 12:15 on Saturday, "Journalism and the Online Information Community: How Wikimedians Cover Wikimedia." Was it recorded and will it eventually be put online?
The only official recordings are for the main hall. I attended the session, I'll be more than happy to relate how it went for you (Anthony, or others as needed) off-list
this coming week if you like/time zones line-up.
{{Nutshell|Wikipedia/Wikimedia is really complicated, and journalists often take the "easy way out" for publication because of the complexity. Wikimedians can do better in distributing news for external publication, and same publications should take care to understand what is being reported. The Signpost needs help.}}
