Pablo this is a really good idea, they did it for YAPC::NA 2005, it
was very nice for those of us that couldn't attend. (I have the CD
ISOs of YAPC::NA 2005 if someone wants a copy)

I suggest there should be a delay between the presentation and the
availability of the media, to reward those that show up. Otherwise, It
might encourage people not to attend to the meetings.
