I believe conferences privatize information. Dconf is not half
bad, but
there're much worse cases. Video is low-quality medium to
deliver
technical information, in some cases it's completely
inaccessible. Well,
if it's not supposed to share information, then ok, but
usually it's
persieved in a different way.
This all seems very odd to me.

You've spent to much time running the confs. When you can't go,
they are the most frustrating thing ever. So much information is
exchanged and so many people are out of it.
I remember finding myself watching conferences live at completely
crazy schedules due to timeshift.
I guess recording provide a fair balance. Especially since
DConf's are very high quality.
