The venue is not recording the videos through WebEx, so there's nothing to publish. There's another guy running a separate camera for the recordings.

And he can't give me an exact date on when the videos will be ready for upload to YouTube, but his estimate is around two weeks.

Well, that's a much better estimate than last year, it's good to hear :)

Can't we just watch it in a mirror? That sounds easier than getting WebEx
working.

This sort of stuff happens literally EVERY year! At this point, you can pretty much guarantee that for any Dconf, Day 1's keynote doesn't get professionally livestreamed, if its recorded at all. At the very LEAST, it makes us look bad.

Is there SOMETHING we can do about this moving forward? Maybe use Dconf/Dfoundation funds to hire a proven video crew not reliant on venue, or something...?

Haha, no I meant a *literal* mirror.  :-D A reflective piece of glass.  To solve the problem of the YouTube flipping everything horizontally.
