Video-team is often understaffed, so it is difficult to have shifts, and 
usually core-video team will do a check of equipment over lunch [solving 
problems, changing cassette, etc.]

Note: the problem is not only for video-team, but whole orga-team: we will 
spend much time to look for people. The venue is smaller (i.e. more packed) 
than dc12 and dc13, but…

I think we can live with 90 min, but IMHO it will not be a enjoyable period for 
us.

So I would make 2h (or 1:45) and take time from afternoon break. 1h break in 
full summer it could cause beer and relax (so skipping last talks).

Some people don’t like to be recorded (first timers, sensible topics, and 
possibly because more reasons [maybe something like CTTE and SPI board meeting, 
but I’m not sure]

I’m a video-team member (but not a core video-team).

marga: really we should act and ask teams explicitly. We need to reduce the 
surprise factor. Not having answers, don’t give us free of problems [and BTW we 
return on orga running middays (and also all day) to find people and fix stuffs 
we didn’t recognise before] [and BTW is it this a task of coordination, to be 
sure all relevant team give informations?].
