Mike,
maybe we can put up together a funding-doing effort so that someone who
attends the meeting also carries some of the recording equipment needed,
for example. If there is a donor it may be that the gear is left in the
Islands; if not, carried back after uploading files.
Others with bandwidth and servers might host a mirror.
And so on.
The greatest challenge is actual bandwidth on the Islands during the
meeting; that seems much harder to get unless one of us can persuade a
satellite and an underwater-cable provider to supply at lest the extra
capacity needed during the meeting.
