As there seems to be complaining about the streaming, let me be a 
counterweight. For me, these arguments convince that Symmetry/you 
have done good job here. We have the livestreams at YouTube 
(except for day 1) for these who want to quickly access the 
talks, and an edited quality versions coming later. Best of both 
worlds.

As for the WebEx mistake, I think that it's secondary -your most 
important goal was to ensure no permanent loss of recordings, and 
that you did.

As with Walter's aeroplane, you can't except every component to 
work, but as long as you have backups, you have done your job. 
Thank you all who were preparing or talking at the conf.
