I do believe that if such objections will ever have place they should
be processed with all due respect and attention but I hope that there
will not be any because of following reasons:

* it's announced explicitly and clear in advance that it will be
public event so somebody badly can demand protection of some private
stuff;
* [last but not least] non-native speakers do need log available to,
say, after-reading (it's tough to be really on-line among native
speakers and never miss something essential)

And yes, in this case  "minutes" will be just summary (if references
to log segments will be included it will be greatly helpful).
