Those people attending remotely also participate. :) While I think the ideas expressed so far are good for completeness, I don't recall a recent DebConf that did not have a 3rd, 4th, or more additional talk or BOF rooms that are not streamed/recorded. These rooms can certainly be utilized for those talks that wish not to be videoed. As a remote attendee for the last few years, having a talk scheduled for one of the main rooms to find it "cancelled for streaming/recording" would be disappointing. -- Kind regards, Michael Shuler
