Andrew Ross from FOSSLC has arrived at FOSS4G with a backpack full of video equipment, ready to film all the sessions at FOSS4G. Yes, you heard right, all the FOSS4G presentations will be recorded and made available through the FOSSLC website for prosperity!
There is only one catch, he needs 6 volunteers with linux based computers (Fedora or Ubuntu based) to help him. If you will be at the conference, and fit this profile, please contact him.
Of note, we are looking for volunteers that we know so that we know where to chase you to get the equipment back after the conference.
