As I understand it, the folks doing the recording were initially relying on
the wifi, and the wifi connection was pretty poor, so something that they
were up to went wrong, and the first three talks are unfortunately "proper
lost." That being said, Walter was going to be giving the same talk again
the week after and was planning to use that recording instead, so some form
of his talk should be going up. Unfortunately, AFAIK, the other two talks
are fully gone though, which definitely sucks. Walter was talking about
making sure that we have some sort of backup recording method in the future,
since he's lost several talks in the past due to issues with recordings and
is getting sick of it. So, I would expect that we'll do a better job of it
in the future. It does seem all too common though for talk recordings in
general to have A/V issues (e.g. Ali has complained several times about how
hard a time they have with that in the D meetups he manages).
