That would be awesome, although I don't know if I'll be able to watch due to time zone differences.

I demand a telehuman stream:

Facebook has one of those, right? ;)

The timezones being so different, I'm not sure livestreaming will help me... But I do plan to watch any videos of it as soon as they are up.

It's the same problem for all Europeans (and many other), including me. I'm also looking forward to the videos, but I think livestreaming is a good thing for those who are able to follow them.

Will that also mean that we won't need to wait several months for all videos to be published? :)

If you use a Google hangout on air with a laptop that is pointing at the presenter, I don't see much extra cost, except perhaps the cost of the bandwidth(free?).

You probably even put a link on the dlang website that opens the hangout, with a different hangout for each session. If you are wanting to delay access to the videos you would have to go onto your youtube channel and make the videos private after the live streaming.

This is an interesting point. If memory serves last time one video was released per week, meaning that reddit/hn readers could properly digest and discuss them in turn.

You'll have to assume that someone will rip the livestream and publish it all the very same day.
